Article in Washington Post today, pg C10; 'Breastfeeding In Public:
'Disgusting'? about a mom of four who while bf in a fast food restaurant
recieved some really nasty comments from an observer/objector.

The article author was very supportive of the bf mother and made several
comments conveying that the critical observer was just uninformed, rude,
misguided, and that "the nursing-objector must have never been a child.
Because she isn't very human".

When I find his email address, I will jot a note to article author Bob Levey,
thanking him for his stance and comments and agreeing with him. As I tell
expectant and new parents: "Breastmilk is in fact the original perfect and
fast food, conveniently always available at two nearby locations".
