Don't expect too much...Md CCA's executive director is very recently quoted as follows: "We seldomly have more than 2 people speak at such hearings. Having dozens stand up and repeat the same thing, ranting away, might make you feel good, but it's a waste of everyone's time."

So there.

Somebody forgot to tell the Exec Director that this meeting is advertised as requesting public comment on what should be included in the addendum.

Last meeting I was at here in VA about the menhaden, all the pogy boat captains from Reedville showed up and told everyone they'd go out of business if there were any reductions at all and then they couldn't buy their kids Christmas gifts......... [shy]
