I was grateful for Marsha Walker's insights on direct marketing of formula
to parents by hospital staff serving as unpaid marketing reps of formula
mfgs.  Anyone care to discuss the ethics of direct marketing of breast pumps
to hospitalized new mothers by staff who also have private depots or pump
sales businesses?  Is this fair game, the convenient provision of needed
products, or is this a conflict of interest?
