**Don't you think there is a risk that this might give a defensive 
impression...? Even if you point out the disadvantages of formula feeding, 
you talk about formula!
In thirteen years, I have never ever come up with this by myself. I don't 
evade questions about it when asked, but never bring it into the discussion.
As a volunteer, I always spend three long evenings (20.15-22.15) on 
breastfeeding and I'm never out of interesting topics, but instead always 
pressed for time.
There is so much to say about breastfeeding and how to get off to a good 
start, that I don't wanna spend time on formulafeeding and definitely not 
compare the one to the other.
Jack Newman said about the comparison between colostrum and formula: "They 
are both liquid." I'll stick to that one! hahaha
