This had good publicity in the UK, I'm glad to say, and it was
discussed here on Lactnet; I think the US press picked it up. It was
in the tabloids here as well as the broadsheets.

However, it has not yet been published (as far as I know) in the
medical journals, so it has not had the benefit of the journals'
press machinery.

This is one reason why no one can cite it to counter the Lucas stuff : (

They *should* publish, in my view, before telling the
world...published papers in peer reviwed journals have far more
credibility.
