Ahhhhh.....14 pages so far of "same chit, different year". You know the topic...."The obvious doesn't matter." The treaty was wrong, is wrong, and likely will forever be wrong. The end ruling was/is the ridiculous result of modern interpretation and would have been shot down long ago at the original signing if any of those involved could see where we are today.

I am curious about something, however. Todd, you pound on Slade Gordon whenever the opportunity arises. What is it that you dispise about his efforts? Was he not a lawyer trying to reduce the tribal impacts, or do I have that wrong? He/we lost, for sure, but why does that affect you personally? It's a serious question. Anyone who is as obsessed with fishing as you cannot not care about fishing opportunity, as do I, but I am confused about where you are coming from with Slade Gordon.
