I know that you wouldn't say anything to the woman because you are a
good person, Jill. But some people get upset if one comments on
others' behaviors. Isn't that what literary works have been
presenting for millenia (sp?). Is it the 2+2=5 generation that is so
touch-y that one is not to have an opinion about others? After all,
this group's subject is food. Does that exclude babies and opinions?
You are allowed to have an opinion, Jill. I give you permission. PIU
on all those who don't think she should.
