Dear George, While reading your site as I do every day, I came across your story on breast feeding and the ensuing protest about it. While I, as much as anybody, recognize the rights of every person, think that there is a whole lot of other things these women could be protesting. Like our sons and daughters dying in an unjust war, women's rights that are being taken away every day by our government, a president that needs to be impeached, the homeless population booming in our community, no jobs in our community, racism, discrimination--the list can go on and on. I just think there are a whole lot of more important issues to protest than breast feeding in public. Which, by the way I surely don't want to see while I am trying to enjoy a meal. I didn't do it when my son was a baby and 28 years later I don't think it is something that should be done in public. Especially in a restaurant. But I do support a woman's RIGHT to do it, even though I don't agree with it. If these women need some causes to protest, send them my way. I have many and can set them up with picket signs post haste. Jan Cornell (electronic mail, June 8, 2004)
