today in the Austin American Statesman, a story described numerous
robberies in the past few months - stolen was S.......-20 or other
artificial formulae.  Apparently a new way to make money is steal formula
from discount stores then re-sell it to small, mom-and pop convenience
stores who then sell it at higher prices, often to poor families who can't
get transportation to the large (usually suburban) convenience stores.  the
article bemoaned the high cost of formula - I'm writing to the statesman to
note that infants fed human milk don't need to worry about the high cost of
artificial feeds....
