Aloha,

I just sent off a letter to the editor of our local midweek paper.  There was
an article "Killing Babies With Mother's Milk."  If i can get it scanned in,
I'll post the article to the list, but I am having trouble.

Many inaccuracies.  Codemned the director of UNICEF for not accepting formula
from companies for babies of HIV moms in third world countries.  Most of her
info seemed to come from the Wall Street Journal article by Freedman and
Stecklow.

Talked about breastfeeding crusaders.  Mentioned how formula was superior to
milk of malnourished moms.  Needless to say I was fuming.  By the way, the
author is currently nursing a five month old.

Aloha,
