I am only a lurker and a learner but I thought I would share this one.
Has anyone seen P!ink's new video 'Raise Your Glass'? There is a scene  
where lactating women are hooked up to a pump/milking station, milk is  
removed and a bovine calf is bottlefed (supposedly) the collected  
human milk.
I thought it very interesting.
