In a message dated 95-09-30 17:26:32 EDT, you write:

At the risk of incurring the wrath of all who read this, I'd like to humbly
suggest that I, in addition to being dedicated to "helping mothers
breastfeed", am also an infant advocate. How do we balance Allison's valid
contention with the fact that the baby is also living with those
choices--especially for some of us who live with a high migrant/poverty level
population?

I was only brave enough to make this inquiry as I have to go NOMAIL for 2
weeks.  :>)
