They ain't nuclear missle secrets, they're probably just damning records on the WDFW rolling over for commercial and tribal interests and they know it wouldn't play well in the media.

Wow glad that money was put to good use :chuckle: If there is a sustainable resource and plenty to go around then yes by all means let those that want to make a living at it do it, but not at the expense of everyone else :twocents:

Sounds like the state was less concerned about money put into the economy and more about certain money put into a few people's pockets. Be interesting to see what comes about from all this.
