You operate farms for carnivorous species on land in a completely controllable containable and closely-regulated manner, or have the firing squad operated on you, one way or the other, period ... just can't be made to work without the chemicals and parasites and diseases ... no one who knows anything about it would eat that pastey pale crap anyway - any colour there is in it is put there by more chemicals ... and check out the protein conversion rate, how much 'salmon' you get per tonne of deepsea 'fish meal' consumed ... the whole thing is a crime, i favour making the perps pay for the cartridges we shoot them with, and the only reason i'm so moderate on the issue is to act as foil for my old westcoast troller friend, who is not

The sea is for wild salmon, which are excellent food and infinitely sustainable if we stop screwing them up ... a lot of spawning channel improvement can be done well and surprisingly cheaply, believe it or not ... trouble is, because it tends to be done by large organisations ruled from Backeast, it tends to be done otherwise [or was years ago, anyway] ... not long after they informed us that they'd nail us for running equipment through any watercourse within a mile or two of any salmon creek, a young federal fisheries guy came along and hired us to do exactly that - root around in creeks with skidders and a small cat ... he was quite bright and understood a lot, he had to deal with the bureaucracy though ... one time we pulled a whole lot of windfalls out of a creek and then replaced a lot of them according to a plan developed from airphotos in Ottawa [or Halifax possibly? ... or someplace even more ridiculous] ... craziness, they had the topography backwards or something, so we just did what was possible and seemed logical and what the fish would like, given what this young fellow knew in the early seventies, got paid by the hour, and left it like that, nothing resembling the plan ... lots of fish there since then, never got a call on the matter, and the cheques cleared, so this is definitely the way to handle things with those people

mlm.v - yeah ... but, when? ... sure is weak, all things considered ... think i'll add
