not surprising

Buh-bye

What a shame. I'd better get started on golf lessons.

Well Duuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhh. :rollem:

Of course that would be a better way. But it has been tried and tried and tried and it has failed, and failed, and failed over, and over, and over again. It is telling that the same article has commercial interests yet again insisting the science is bad, there are plenty of fish that can be killed. Same old head in the sand self-serving crap over and over and over again. And Mr Wolf wants to continue the process? Brilliant.

As long as these fish can be sold they will be over-exploited. It pays to do so.
