Hi All,
Yes I was definitely in rant mode.  Elisheva writes:

Well, I for one, would be interested in doing this, but have no idea how it
would be arranged, and what the legal aspects would be.  I would do this on
a volunteer basis (or do it for an ILCA membership with JHL subscription)
even because I believe in this so strongly.  Anyone know how to do this type
of stuff?  Anyone want to form a non-profit group specifically for this
purpose?  I have a savings account I started specifically for Lactnet last
year (for the shirst, and it is now being used for the raffle) and would be
happy to let it be used on a permanent basis for this type of venture.

If it were possible, I would already know most of you in person because I'd
be going to every conference and educational seminar I could get to.  I
would also be taking courses through BSC and LI getting a bachelors, master
and PhD in Maternal and Child Health and Lactation because I believe in this
so much.  I never knew what I wanted to be when I grew up until my 2nd child
gave me the most severe problems BF one could imagine.  BF is my passion,
and is my life, but I cannot put it before my children, and though I know I
deserve to do this BF thing all the way, my children deserve to have their
mother full time.  I am only 32 yrs old, so I have time.  I just have to
work on my patience a bit...

So, any takers on this project?
