Karen Seroussi has described an incredible teaching technique!  I just 
*love* the image of the quiet room, full of med students, reading bullet 
point after bullet point of the health risks involved with not BF.

I think those of us who work in this field forget how little people outside 
of it understand about BF.  I recall another speaker describing an attempt 
to convince her instution to go Baby Friendly.  She had what she considered 
a "throw away slide" listing the various diseases and conditions that are 
seen more in FF babies than BF babies.  Her audience, too, gasped. She was 
surprised that this information -- so basic to her -- had such impact.
