My "perspective" on easy-Internet access to FDA warning letters sent to
makers of various machines, produced by various companies:  thank
goodness mothers (and health care providers) are able to easily access
information about products, especially when the only other messaging they
are receiving comes from the manufacturers themselves, who have a vested
interested in "spin" to downplay complaints that have been made on products,
and corrections that have been undertaken at the government's behest.

This is why it is imporant for mothers (and health care providers) to alert
the FDA when there are problesm with formula, and breat pumps, and
medicines.  And we should alert the Consuemr Product Safety Cmsn about
"stuff" sold to parents for babies' use.  Like I said:  this is my tax
dollars at work, in what I perceive to be a very good way.
