What are you, a gillnet lover?

For advanced reading, those who are interested in the difference between an interest and a position, Google up "backfire effect" and read up on how that works, too...essentially it describes the tipping point where people who are in the midst of confusing their interest and their position...for many, when they hear the facts that might cause them to question the ability of their position to further their interest, they dig in with a religious fervor, holding onto their position like a life rope, rather than changing their position in favor of their interest.

It's an interesting psychological manifestation whereby people who are afraid, unwilling, or flat out unable to change their position in order to further their interest abandon their interest and really, really dig in to protect their faith in their position.

And yes, there actually is a whole area of psychological study on this issue...and the LCR selective fishing/CCA Kool-Aid situation would make a perfect case study for it.

Fish on...
