 Letters and omissions are fine so long as we know what we are talking
 about.  There is discussion of both the Avent Isis pump and the
 Ameda/Hollister pump, both could be A****.  Which one are you speaking of
 in this post? And I can't identify the SMB. >>

Kathy A & Kathleen B, please refresh ALL our collective memories.  I'm having
a great deal of difficulty understanding, why, if we are discussing a product
in a professional manner, we are still using intials and ****.  While I
realize there are Medela and Ameda-Egnell and Avent and probably Ross & MJ
(which does NOT refer to the famous Michael Jordan) people on this list (hi
all of you who are lurking out there), as long as we are not speaking in an
unprofessional manner, what's the problem with calling the Avent Isis pump the
Avent Isis pump?  I'll admit this REALLY frustrates me!
