Well, abortions and miscarriages are the same thing, really.  The question 
is whether it was spontaneous or induced.  And if it was induced, then 
presumably there is a doctor out there who induced it.  But I assume the 
doctor would be protected by some sort of patient confidentiality thing?

Hmmm.  What if he had said this on a blog, rather than a billboard?
