For those of you who heard that AOL had banned the word "breast" on the
grounds that it was pornographic/offensive, please be aware that this
banning lasted about 2 days and was reversed after vociferous complaints
from a breast cancer support group.

I suggest that those of you on AOL might also put in a good word for the
word in question from teh standpoint of a breastfeeding advocate!  It is
time AOL learned that more than people who have LOST a breast care about
using the term.




Def. of LC service: "We are all faced with a series of great opportunities
brilliantly disguised as impossible situations."
