I don't know who 'blew up the schedule' but I do know that WDFW is an agency of the State of Washington and NOAA is an agency of the United States as is the BIA, and it appears that those agencies are in a pissing match with each other at our expense. We as taxpayers fund those agencies therefore they work for us and owe us their impartial service, their is no excuse for any vindictiveness from any of those agencies toward each other or towards us. I totally disagree with your statement "That's the way the world works" because such behavior would not be tolerated in any place in the world except a government funded bureaucracy.
