=============================
Bonjour Michael!

-> 
-> Certainly; but you both have to fight it. Apparently
-> anger yields the best prognosis, resignation the worst.
-> Sunny side up must be somewhere in between.
-> 
As long as it's not resignation!

->  -> ship-factories vacuuming up tons of nasty snail protein
->  -> and turning them into Krab or something.
->  HN> And the environmental impact of the 
->  HN> "vacuum" would be far reaching on
->  HN> other species as well. 
-> 
-> I thought that the philine displaced other species to
-> the point of monoculture, so their harvest would cause
-> a vacuum of another sort, allowing previously displaced
-> species another chance to colonize.
->
Larger clams, sea cucumbers, larger
crabbies, small bottom dwelling fish
like flounders etc.... And plant life
as well...which might be food/habitat/
protection for other species.

->  -> An interesting complication. What species do the
->  -> bass, perch, and pike displace?
->  HN> Trout, salmon fry, and other small
->  HN> fishes in the food chain. Even native
->  HN> frogs are in decline in part due to 
->  HN> bass predation on small frogs and 
->  HN> tadpoles. 
-> 
-> The trout I can understand, but where do salmon breed
-> in bass/perch/pike habitat?
->
Rivers and streams are salmon
spawning sites...and they also
have to get to the sea that way
as well. And yep you'll find 
all three of those invaders
also in streams and rivers. 
 
->  HN> Still Southwest did get some industry
->  HN> award or recognition recently didn't it?
-> 
-> It periodically does, in both directions. There are two
-> advantages it has had over other airlines (watch what
-> happens when Airtran gets folded into the mix, though) -
-> one, it flies only 737s, which really uncomplicates
-> scheduling and other issues. Two, it's had the benefits
-> of long-term fuel price hedging.
-> 
-> As far as customer service goes, it's the second worst
-> I've experienced. The worst was United when I was a
-> "general member"; the best has been United as an elite
-> member. The best I've experienced as a nobody was on
-> Continental.
-> 
Anne and I will most likely fly
Delta ( the monster that ate
Northwest) down to 
Sandy Eggo...I'm thinking
about using FF miles to 
upgrade us to first...a
special treat!
-> ==
-> 
-> -> 200-250. I can fast for a week and it'll be over 200.
-> > WOW! and I'm panicking because my morning 
-> > fastings are between 150 and 170 or so!!
-> 
-> Funny thing, it's only been this year; up until
-> recently I've been "prediabetic." This kicking it
-> up a notch, apparently several notches actually, has
-> been quite sudden.
->
Maybe it's a beer thing? Took
Annie out to lunch this week
had a single guiness...next morning 
my fasting blood was 192! 
chat with you soon!
