Breast feeding, Genetically Engineered Foods, Autism
Breastfeeding:
Breast feeding in public is hitting the press. There was a recent "nurse
in" in
NY City to claim the rights of women to breast feed in public.
This article titled,"If men
could breast fed." is a great
write up about the current situation.

More on Autism:
National Press about theVaccine/ Autism Connection:
These recent articles in Washington Times
reveal a very interesting hypothesis. Author, Dan Olmsted writes: "Since the
Amish
have
been cut off
for
hundreds
of
years
from
American
culture
and
scientific progress, the Amish may have had less exposure to some new factor
triggering autism in the rest of population. The likely culprit: vaccines.
Traveling to the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch country in search of autistic Amish children, the reporter, based on national statistics, should have found as many as 200 children with autism in the community -- instead, he found only three, the oldest age 9 or 10.
The first autistic Amish child was a girl who had been brought over from China, adopted by one family only to be given up after becoming overwhelmed by her autism, and then re-adopted by an Amish Mennonite family. (China, India and Indonesia are among countries moving fast to mass-vaccination programs.)
The second autistic Amish child definitely had received a vaccination and developed autism shortly thereafter.
The reporter was unable to determine
the vaccination status of the third child.

The Medical Debate:
This link leads you to an informative letter from one MD to another about the
connection between vaccines and autism. http://bbs.babycenter.com/board/baby/babyills/babyvaccine/11967/thread/2127794
Video on Autism:
The autism mailing group recently sent out this link: http://www.autism-recoveredchildren.com/
It is a one hour video from the DAN conference, about kids on the autistic
spectrum who have recovered through the use of nutritional intervention.
The interesting thing is that a lot of these kids became "autistic" after
vaccination. Some really interesting footage. And a fantastic shot of
the audience responding to Gov. Schwarzenager signing a bill to forbid
the
use of mercury
in vaccinations. The speaker has all parents in the audience stand and
wave their hands if they thought their child would not be autistic
if not for
their vaccination.
RFK, Jr on Autism:
Recent
press has been focusing on an article written by RFK, Jr on the effects of thimerosal
in vaccines and the vaccine connection.
