Greg,

No worries, perhaps you need a little "red vine" tune up! Figured you must of been having some kind of bad day.

I was riding off of Lahaina and saw one breach in the distance a couple of years ago...that was close enough...like diving in the kelp in Nor Cal and a seal shoots buy...

The whales (and other marine life) did lose pretty big by this Supreme Court ruling today..."Supreme court rules for Navy in whales-sonar case"

http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20081112/us_ ... G0HqxAw_IE

If there were a consensus (among the legislators) that the sonar is harmful, than more effort could be put toward designing and implementing a new system that does not interfere with the animals neither biologically nor, across their own communication systems.

This whole whale story is plastered on Yahoo.com. It's currently the featured featured/news item on the Yahoo home page.

At least it's not like the bad publicity that Kevin (not K. Cliff \:D/ ) got for us in Florida.
