infant cries

Did anyone see the Oprah episode or the Today show with a woman named
Priscilla Dunstan talking about different types of cries that she has
identified?  I have read about being able to distinguish cries before, but I
couldn't in my own infant - only "upset" and "very upset".

I am asking because baby cries is not my area (obviously) and I was
wondering if anyone who is familiar with cries agrees with her
interpretation.  She has a DVD of cry examples and I would like to be able
to provide examples in class.
