I vote no on the abm affiliation...for all the reasons previously stated.
One question, how will this be verified?  If someone from the industry DOES
managed to get an IBCLC or CLE credential, will it be obvious from some
other aspect?  Is this strictly on the honor system?  Are we kidding
ourselves that we'd be able to really keep them out?  Okay, so that's more
than one question, but nonetheless the principle should be that LN is free
of them.
