Changes

[[George Hill]] ({{LifeData|birth=1937-06-01|birthplace=Baton Rouge, Louisiana|birthcountry=[[USA]]|death=|deathplace=|deathcountry=}}) early became aware of the function and value of the [[foreskin]]. When his son was born at the later infamous [[Northside Hospital]] in February 1979, Hill refused to permit a [[circumcision]], citing the position of the [[AAP]] on lack of medical indication,<ref>{{REFjournal |last=Thompson |first= |init=HC |author-link= |last2=King |first2= |init2=LR |author2-link= |last3=Knox |first3=E |init3= |author3-link= |last4=Korones |first4= |init4=SB |author4-link= |etal=no |title=Report of the Ad Hoc Task Force on Circumcision |trans-title= |language= |journal=Pediatrics |location= |date=1975-10 |volume=56 |issue=4 |pages=610-11 |url=https://www.cirp.org/library/statements/aap/#a197 |archived= |quote= |pubmedID=1174384 |accessdate=2024-10-09}}</ref> and resulting in the displeasure of an OB-GYN who came early to the hospital hoping to collect a [[Financial incentive|fee]]. Hill attended the [[Second International Symposium]] at San Francisco in 1991 where he met many [[intactivists]], including [[Ashley Montagu]], [[Paul M. Fleiss]], and [[Marilyn Fayre Milos| Marilyn Milos]]. ==Circumcision Information and Reference Pages==American [[intactivists]] held a meeting at Evanston, Illinois that was timed to coincide with the annual meeting of the [[American Academy of Pediatrics]] in nearby Chicago. The intent was to demonstrate at the AAP meeting. Hill attended that meeting where he met many intactivists, including [[Geoffrey T. Falk]], who at that time was a graduate student from [[Canada]]. Falk had some knowledge of the creation of websites and wanted to create a website to provide information online about circumcision on the then new Internet. Hill was a reasonably good typist and could transcribe material into text files. A synergistic new partnership soon emerged that resulted in the creation of the Circumcision Information and Reference Pages ([[CIRP]]). Hill prepared many files for inclusion on the CIRP website from 1996 until 2013. ==Doctors Opposing Circumcision==Hill is the Vice-President for Medical Science and Bioethics of [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision (D.O.C.)]], and its prolific scribe. George joined [[DOC]] in 1997 and swiftly became a highly productive advocate. He has to his credit several published articles and letter-briefs questioning [[circumcision]]. He has kept up a lively correspondence with the [[American Academy of Pediatrics]], the [[CDC]], and state Medicaid agencies nationwide. He was the author of the original [[Doctors Opposing Circumcision (D.O.C.)]] Genital Integrity Policy Statement,<ref>{{REFdocument
