  1. One small block of 4A "D" class up for bid. Not too newsworthy!

  2. Let's see the list of CREWMEN
    houses foreclosed on since I F Q's
    were introduced. Or because quota
    share owners raised their quota
    percentage to avoid repossession.

  5. IFQs need to go the way of the dinosaur. No way for a newbie to get into fisheries because fishing has become a hobby for the rich to get richer these days.

  6. It's really hard to break this IFQ triangle - powerful handful having the federal and state governments on their side leaves nothing for the resource owners.

    Eat chicken and noodles instead of seafood because that's for the rich people.
