I have come upon a fact sheet from the Breastfeeding Taskforce of
Greater Los Angeles and am wondering if anyone from that group is on
lactnet?  They present some interesting facts and I am seeking
references.

This one was astounding to  me:

If half of the women who participate in WIC program breastfed for just
one month - 29 MILLION would be saved in formula costs by the US Gov't!

WOW!!!!!!
