SCOWAK: I have always attacked ANY administration that proposes to harm our fish. I was not on P.P. during the Clinton years, but if you go back and read some of my STS editorials during the Clinton years you will see that I also took them to task for poor environmental choices. While I freely admin to not liking Bush, the main reason for that is his relentless assaults on the environment.

Kjackson:

Perhaps you are confused. P.P. IS an editorial forum. I did not post this as an article that I had researched, but simply as what it was, a news item in the N.Y. Times. I clearly stated my source, and made no claim for it to be any more than that. I’m guessing the N.Y. Times, like all major papers, does require that news articles are thoroughly researched. I have carefully read all you posts on this as well as a great deal more info. You have no right to assume I am uninformed simply because my reading of the facts seems to result in an opinion different than your. While I do not agree with all your conclusions, I did not take you to task for presenting the facts as you see them. IMHO this is a clear attack on wild fish restoration. That is my OPINION. OK?

P.S. Plese feel free to list the errors in the NY Times artilce. I did not post the entire article, so you may find more info by reading the rst of it. it is also in the Sunday paper here.
