Hi All,
Re: Ross Media, Gloria Baldwin is not the author of bottlefeeding w/o
guilt - Peggy Robbins wrote that gem.

Also, I am amazed at the info on the Milk Bank in Bulgaria. Obviously,
they understand the importance of breastmilk. Obviously most thnigs can
be accomplished if you approach it from a positive, committed attitude.
I would willing pay my taxes if it went to the education of our young,
paying for human milk & it's distribution to families (rather than
formula), assistance for medical students to get educated & experience
in breastfeeding, human milk and it's management, and we insured that
all citizens received medical care (rather than illegal immigrants &
criminals in prison being the only ones guaranteed medical care) and
other rational, sane uses for my tax dollars than some of the waste that
is currently being done.

My only other thought is how can a doctor make a statement such as "why
breastfeed after one year, it stays white but is only water," with a
straight face? The truly un-funny thing about the statement is that
women will believe it - only because it comes from a doctor.
