This group has surfaced before (spring 2000?) with some minor press coverage.
At that time a friend did a web search on the woman's name and discovered that
she (along with her sister apparently) is a porn actress and operates a porn
website.  It seems safe to say that possible incestuous relationships and
homosexuality are not the true concerns of this campaign.  Rather I would guess
that for some reason these people are getting a kick out of maligning
breastfeeding.  This seems to be basically a publicity stunt and as such
strikes me as a much *smaller* concern than Dr. Sears accepting formula
advertising.
