"I do agree, however, that WalMart needs a national policy.  I've heard
of incidents elsewhere. Remember though, in many places they have
provided finanical support to LLL groups, or permitted them to do
fundraising on premises."

The above is a quote from Melissa Kirsch's post today regarding Walmart.
I am not criticising LLL groups about accepting money from Walmart, far
from it, I want to make this clear.  I think it is worthwhile, however,
to note how financial support does change the way we deal with people or
companies.  So when the hospital, physician etc, says that s/he is not
affected by "donations" from formula companies, remember the above.
