What reelron said! Look at the sea bass closure thread and read Adam's description of the problem. Knowing that there is better data to be used that was not, ask Ms. Kurkul why she would not vote in favor of having the SSC look at that data and incorporate it into their quota recommendation.
Ask Pat why she insists on trying to find new and creative ways to screw the fishermen with MRFSS data. Now they want to use it as a real-time monitoring system??
Is she that attached to MRFSS that she has to try and drain every last ounce of pain out of it before it is replaced?
Ask her why she continues to ignore the "anecdotal" and industry data provided her to refute MRFSS and other claims when even the NRC review of MRFSS clearly states that such data should be used to validate or invalidate the "best available" data NMFS uses.
How's that for a stream of conscious ramble huh?
