While I agree with most things you said Bright sparks....throwing your toys out of the crib just because everyone doesn't agree with you is silly. I think most people here share general beliefs on breast feeding. When you ask for advice on a public forum you will get all sorts of opinions. Take em or leave em.

My take on being advised to try another forum is that if you only want to hear what people with exactly the same beliefs as you have to say then you need to try a more specific forum.
