In 1975-76, a hospital in Twin Cities area (Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN USA)
was paying mothers $1/oz for their milk to use in a variety of research
projects. Figuring the amount of inflation over the past 20 years plus the
number of oz needed (see Jan Barger's earlier post on this (9,000+ oz in
one year) and one can only conclude that what women make is worth BIG
BUCKS!
Def. of LC service: "We are all faced with a series of great opportunities
brilliantly disguised as impossible situations."
