Hello All,

I just came back from Walmart went to go buy Dan (middle son who is suffering
from a bad case of "middleidis" these days) a new bike.  Well you walk right
into Walmart and there stands a poster display that is advertising their new
Parent's Choice Formula along with 2 cans of the stuff.  The poster says:
"There is no instruction manual for babies.  Thank goodness there is a
formula"  I wanted to talk to the store manager but Thomas was all over the
place.  The more I think about this advertising statement the more ticked off
I am getting.  Now who made up the advertising statement ??  Wyeth or
Walmart???

Oh by the way for those of you that do not subscribe to Parents Magazine (well
once my subscription runs out that is it not renewing it.  In fact I was
thinking of just ditching the magazine and not opening another one.)  The
March issue has a two page add  for this  "new" formula and get this  , under
the can of formula is typed "The Miracle of Birth  The reality of life"  This
is WORSE then the Nestle adds.

Anyone have ideas of how we can get these adds banned if not just changed ????
