Before you 'buy' the idea of harmful chemicals in plastics, you may want to
investigate the other side of the debate.  Check out this issue on

There can be money and power in creating a scare.  Remember the lack of
science behind the silicone implant fiasco that frightened numerous women,
destroyed a product and a company and enriched a number of lawyers.  Remember
the fraudulent science implicating high power lines.  Keep your guard up.

<< This month is Baby Safety Month and Consumer Reports online
 (http://www.ConsumerReports.org/Special/Samples/Reports/9905bab0.ht) has
 a a special report on bottles and teethers that could contain possibly
 harmful chemicals. This report does not address breastfeeding but
 certainly has useful information. They also have baby bottles to look
 for, in case moms are planning to store breast milk. They don't address
 the current pump or storage systems so it might be worthwhile to look
 into those. >>
