They are friends and have been for many years. And both have done good work for their respective organizations. I am not saying JC would be good as our ED, but that remains to be seen. But you, unlike her and Hanke have been marginalized and are now considered effectual by all policy makers in our group as well as those in NPFMC and the BOF. Hanke and JC, on the other hand, are part of solutions and not the problems. You?

It made me sick to see how it operated; endorsing BOF incompetent hacks and right wing nut political criminals. The final blow for me was their stance on processor quote.

If an ED violates their boundaries, they get fired. Pretty simple. It doesn't really matter who the ED is. They should be able to talk, read, write a decent letter, inform and educate their board on issues unfamiliar to them. HAVING A NARROW COMMERCIAL FISHING VIEW IS A PLUS PLUS ON THE RESUME. You will find few people who have the experience and the dedication to tackle this job.<br />The anti-Petersburg mantra is getting stale. If we get more tickets, its because we fish more. In the northern gillnet fishery in s.e., there were numerous line violations. And I mean numerous. The jack-booted thugs had cameras on lines and stake outs. Lines are lines and must be adhered to. Out of all the tickets that were handed out, I know of 1 (one) Petersburg ticket. The rest were from Juneau and Haines and Wrangell and such. Same story for the season before, except nobody from Petersburg got a ticket. This idea of an insidious dark force out of Petersburg manipulating fishery policies for their own profit is the result of having a diverse fleet that recognizes the importance of an industry, and plugging into the process to protect its interests. The only thing dark and insidious are the stains in the underwear of those idiots who make such accusations.
