You are getting tiresome...and as I have only 5 mails per day
on this echo I will reply in future to those who supply something
tangible and perhaps useful rather than someone who obviously has
nothing better to do with his/her spare time than complain about
all and sundry without any counterarguments. You give the impression
that you have some sort of (health?) problem and are rather
frustrated. As to the numerous research papers on milk (at least
those which were not funded by the milk industry) I would need
hours to name them all (try the Diamonds for starters as this is
neither a new nor unknown subject and there are plenty of quotes
even in there to keep you satisfied for a few weeks). If you want
a few German papers...I can quote them as well.
