He will be appearing at the bfing conference in early September of ALCA in Canberra

I am sure we will all know more re the context of his utterances, after this meeting.
Lets try to give him some benefit of the doubt until then. I do not know him at all but he is appearing with a lot of lactnet and Aussie stars at this meeting.
I think the doctors just totally do not get the connection between all of these baby food companies and the sabotage of breastfeeding - somehow there does not seem to be an association in the minds of a lot of these people. We have stores of IBCLCs who are MDs appearing at booths for the formula companies who say they are wear their 'doctor hat' and not IBCLC.
Evi
There are so many levels to this overall problem. As Marsden Wagner said re doctors or others talking to doctors - treat them with love (I forgot the rest of the phrase).
Now I have caught the problem of my posts coming out with the = signs at the end of the lines, and I am not a MAC user. Has anyone figured out what to do??
