“I haven’t seen any of the science,” admitted Councilmember Elizabeth Pearson. “All we know is what opinions are. I don’t know if we’re overfished. I don’t know that we need replenishment. But I do know this: I’ve seen some disgusting things happening at Shaw’s Cove (a popular diving area) over the last 20 years. There’s been abuse after abuse ... so this is our last chance to do something.”
What Elizabeth Pearson didn't say.......
"Science!? We don't need no stinking science. Anecdotal evidence, emotion and blind faith in the goodness of our intentions is all that we need"
