spitting DNA in an evening dress...

Scientists are always striving to do, make, develop or discover the next big thing, but one person's advance might be another person's step-too-far.

Well, I agree with your point (the brief one addressed at me) above).

The diatribe about ease of breastfeeding is a whole different suite of issues, I think about half of which we might agree on, and half of which we would violently clash. But it would be a very dreary conversation.

I was fed entirely on formula (long story) and I turned out ok. Oh, except for that third leg growing out of my forehead.

From what I understood, the differences are pretty slight, statistically and not as risky as, say, driving your kid to work in a car. My partner doesn't want to breastfeed when the time comes (for Amy's reasons, above) and I completely respect that.
Bollocks. I was so excited about showing off my lipid-based prowess I failed to notice that Chall was talking about Dick.

Ah. Well, now I'm curious about the 'violently clash' part. But OK.
