Marianne and Sam

Thanks for your thoughtful and thought-provoking responses.  You're 
both quite right to remind us (me!) of the differences between 
donations and dumping, and clarifying when gifts constitute hazard, 
not help.....   I once read about snow-ploughs being sent to 
Uganda!   Sending truckloads of LCs to far-off places instead is 
_such_ a good idea - I'm trying to suggest the very same thing in 
situations where these little foil packets of peanut paste are being 
distributed in unbelievable quantities to treat, and lately to 
prevent malnutrition in young children, and at the same time the aid 
agencies seem to have completely forgotten about breastfeeding.

The rich variety of discussions, ideas flying everywhere on this 
list, are what makes LACTNET so great :-)
