Dear Friends:
    It is early in the morning. I am reading LACTNET before going to work.
Could this be another source of the 4:1000 deaths figure. WHO or UNICEF gives
the figure that 1.5 million babies die per year because they are not
breastfed. What would happen if this number was worked against the total
number of babies born per year in the world?
    Mathematically challenged this early,
