Hi, Judy,

What a great opportunity to "publicize" breastfeeding!

Since the interview is in August, why not talk about this year's World
Breastfeeding Week theme, the economic advantages of breastfeeding.?  Lots of
subject matter on the WABA site:
 <A HREF="http://www.elogica.com.br/waba/wbw97/english.htm">WABA -
Breastfeeding: The Best Investment</A>
http://www.elogica.com.br/waba/wbw97/english.htm

Another timely issue is the bill introduced by Rep. Maloney for working moms.
Some sites to check out are:
 <A HREF="http://www.house.gov/maloney/">Congresswoman Carolyn B. Maloney -
Homepage</A>
http://www.house.gov/maloney/

<A HREF="http://www.abcnews.com/sections/living/DailyNews/breastfeeding_law.ht
ml">Bill to Help New Moms Nurse While They Work</A>
http://www.abcnews.com/sections/living/DailyNews/breastfeeding_law.html

People in the media are happy when you can tie the subject matter to "timely"
issues...and then may be more amenable to doing another interview next year,
when a new WBFW theme (and "new" bf issues) appear.

Good luck!
