Hi Valerie, I for one, think what you are doing is important valuable work. There are some posts I automatically delete, but I automatically read yours. You wrote: I have spoken at the past two Florida LLL Conferences and was told that my topic (Breastmilk as Big Business) was rather controversial and some people felt not relevant to LLL leaders. I haven't been asked this year, hm....I guess I shouldn't wonder why. LLL, like many other large organizations, is made up of all kinds of people and the way they approach learning. Please don't assume that your contacts in Florida represent the entire LLL population. Your topic IS controversial but that shouldn't keep us from talking about it and informing Leaders and mothers. I know many of us in Missouri follow your posts and talk about them. Keep on keeping on. This is important work! Warmly, Nikki Simmons A LLLLeader in Missouri *********************************************** To temporarily stop your subscription: set lactnet nomail To start it again: set lactnet mail (or digest) To unsubscribe: unsubscribe lactnet All commands go to [log in to unmask] The LACTNET mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software together with L-Soft's LSMTP(R) mailer for lightning fast mail delivery.
