I live here and I had no idea about this. Totally missed out.

Sorry about that, I'm on the other coast, so I'm a few hours behind.....and I don't plan on staying up to all hours to keep the news current, although I guess at times I do.

haha. I just meant you'd think I would have my ear closer to local news. But from the article it sounds like the fishermen are getting interested in doing this sort of thing again and it could spark a revival of buying fresh off the war seafood out here again and I would be very, very hip to that.

Good for the fishermen. They deserve the money.
I heard about this an was considering buying some but the retail price hasn't changed.
The article says the fishermen get paid $4/lbs but here a 2lbs lobster retails for $35. That's a grotesque mark up.
