In my Humble Geologist Opinion (I'm no BI Jeff)
I think this new language is a new way of saying "yeah we know there's a problem, but we aren't going to much about it, other than pay some blowhard academic to look into it"...
Wait... I'm a blow hard academic
I miss the days of 12"+ pogies in the harbor... 12lb blues off S Dock was SOP back in the 80's... this summer the harbor blues were 3-7 pounds... disapointing... cause back in the day there were not as many big bass around....
