I've been following the discussion and watching and waiting to see what goodies
might come up.  A term that I have been using is *drain the breast*.  The
reason I've been waiting is that I'm not sure that the word *draining* is any
better than *emptying*.  Do you all have any thoughts about whether this might
work better?  I sort of envision draining as a slow release of liquid as oppose
to emptying as, sort of, dumping out the liquid.  In the end I guess it's all
the same.

Regards,
