Civility and Pride of Alaskans for Their Marine Environment
- "President Obama's Ocean Task Force is underway... What struck me about watching the first hearing in Anchorage August 21 - on NOAA streaming video - was both the civility, and the unique pride of Alaskans in their largely intact though threatened marine environment. No 'town hall from hell' shout downs, no talk about Ocean Death Panels with government bureaucrats deciding which fish will live and which will die. People disagreed but with respect." - excerpt from the Blue Note #63 email newsletter.
