Flutterby™! : abortion

Ages ago I wrote a quick sketch on the history of abortion which, despite its brevity and lack of citations (something I hope to fix), still gets me lots of mail. That piece talks about the history from a belief standpoint, here's a couple of functional links: Herbal Abortion, "if you can bake a cake, you can make an abortion"; Preventing and Ending Pregnancy; in the Medicinal herb FAQ there's a section on Herbal Abortives and Birth Control. Obviously since this information is on the net it must be true, and I'd also think about mainstream solutions first, but it's always interesting to look at historical options.
