OT Greg, was sort of wondering the same thing, but was afraid to ask.

Unrelated to that, here's one definitely valid reason for exposing one (see article below):

Can you imagine being forced to eat in a bathroom? Certainly doesn't sound hygenic. That's essentially what Starbucks thinks babies should do, according to this article here.

Unreal that Starbucks CEO is stuck back in a prior bygone era:

"Breastfeeding Moms Hold 'Nurse-In' at Starbucks"

SEATTLE (Reuters) - More than two dozen mothers staged a breastfeeding "nurse-in" at a Starbucks Corp. store in Maryland over the weekend in an effort to get the world's largest coffee shop chain to adopt a policy allowing breastfeeding in all its U.S. stores.

Lorig Charkoudian, who organized the event, said on Tuesday that she began her quest a month ago when she was nursing her 15-month-old daughter at the store in Silver Spring, Maryland, and was asked by a Starbucks employee to cover up with a blanket or breastfeed in the bathroom.

She protested and, after eventually reaching the regional vice president, got Seattle-based Starbucks to recognize a Maryland law that allows mothers to breastfeed their children in public.
