Steve i posted a link to the original article. I copied the article because it is relevent to our ongoing debate about the reserves.

I have to agree with the paragraph that you extracted from the article. Economic self-interest was one of the prime factor driving the decline in the first place and therefore the need for the reserves. Economic concerns have been running the show forever and it is evident that those concerns must now take a backseat if the recovery effort is to be successful. Personally, i think the economic impact from the reserves has been grossly overstated. If you can't fish here, you simply motor up the island a few miles.

Those who will be impacted by the reserves are the same ones that have profited during the decline....
