OK, folks.  I've been challenged, and have been unable to respond to this
question: Where are the peer-reviewed medical journal articles showing any
benefit from nursing > 12 mo.?  Of course, my first response is, "show me the
articles demonstrating a benefit from early weaning, which I define as < 28 mo.",
but that begs the original question.
