The main company that makes the DHA additive is Martek.  I bought stock in
this company so that I can get their annual corparate reports.  They have
agreements with something like 80% of the world wide producers of formula for
those companies to use the additive when/if it gets government approval.
 Currently it is only liscenced for use in Holland.  They are also doing
research in using the DHA as a food supplement for Alzheimers patients.   If
anybody would like to have a photcopy of the companies annual report, send me
an email message and I will tell you how to get one.

ALSO the April 17, 1996 cover of JAMA has a painting featuring a BF mother by
Honoré-Victorin Daumier.  It is entitled "The Third Class Carriage"

ALSO there is an ad for the Corel Medical Series CD-ROM company.  It
announces their release of a multimedia title on Epilepsy.  The ad states
that there is an upcoming title of "Breast Feeding"  There is a notice that
says ATTENTION MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS! IF you are a medical professional
interested in having your research  material published by the world leader in
CD_ROM technology, please call Corel Corporation for information on our new
MEdical Series product line:

This might be a chance for qualified LACTNETTERS to help promote their
LACTATION knowledge to others via computer CD-ROM.  Perhaps there is still
time to get some qualified people to help edit the BF series CD-ROM.  The
Epilepsy CD-ROM has a suggested list price of $24.95 so this appears
reasonably priced.  Their phone number is 1-800-554-1635  their web site is
