That's good news. Long way to go, however. Lets blow out the walls of the room in SD and save our grounds. One question, Paul: what's happened with the military closures and how is it affecting fisherman in general?

The military issue was finally laid to rest this week when the Blue Ribbon Task Force came to the decision to count the pending closure areas on the north end of San Clemente, although Wilson Cove is optional for stakeholder proposals. A San Nicolas closure is also optional. In addition, Begg Rock to the northwest of San Nic was defined as outside military jurisdiction. MPAs cannot be proposed for other parts of SCI.

Many in the preservationist community were deeply disappointed. The result is pressure to make up the difference at Catalina. We might also have picked up more kelp at SCI, at the cost of serious losses such as China Pt to Pyramid Cove, which was one of the proposals. It was a mixed bag Kurt, that hopefully won't spill over to the mainland coast.

June 29th and June 30th are La Jolla's do-or-die time. Let's work together.

Hear, hear! I'll see ALL of you at the SD workshops.

I would like to see Every Member of Big Water's Edge at both of the San Diego Meetings.
-This last meeting is proof that we can make a difference, and create our own destiny.

We need to fight hard now because you are never going to get another shot at this again. Never.

It pays to be a winner.
