Heather, I think one can fall into a trap and get terribly depressed about
the situation.  But as they say on broadway, "it ain't over til the fat lady
sings!"  Sing out, we gotta!!!
This has all been kept too quiet.  It is obvious to me that the answer can
only be in speaking out over and over again.   The governments(including the
UN) have already sold out.  They have bought biotechnology hook, line and
sinker!

Breastfeeding classes ought to be fun talking about the differences between
human breast milk and formula.  Hey we got this formula over here and maybe
its made from the mammary tissue of a cow, sheep, goat, pig or mouse(pick
one).  Ya can talk about cutting and splicing and what wonder germ you use
for the vector(ususally e-coli).  And instant, presto, chang-o  it resembles
human milk.  But what shall we call it?  I call it "Russian roulette." I can
even see the cute little mouse pictures on the cans(see they aren't even
breaking the Code)....    Valerie W. McClain, IBCLC
