but I learned for the first time yesterday that our biggest obstacle is that
the PHD director simply doesn't believe that breastfeeding makes a difference
in public health.
Dear Friends:
    Doesn't this drive us mad? The director doesn't believe that bf makes a
difference. So the AAP must be wrong, along with WHO/UNCICEF, the ABM, and all
the people that have published great works on this topic (Labbok and Riordan
to name but two).
    Can this person be asked what they would believe?
    warmly,
