Btw.. we just had a discussion with profs today about the easiest way to get a paper accepted.. Copy paste an existing work, introduce some spelling errors in the abstract and submit it to B venues..har har har.. Somebody in this green earth actually got away with it..

I guess we will go a similar route as with wild game.

Yeah, I guess we could use the oceans better… just don’t finish all the seafood before we figure out how to!

Thanks Jorge for the link. It is sadly true that the fish stock continuously dwindles. I think fish shouldn’t be the only thing farmed in the sees and that we shouldn’t continue doing it as we do and converge more towards a structured farming approach with respect to the sees as we do it on land.

Like having cattle and wheat farms in the open ocean. There is simply so much space it is a pity that we cannot properly use it yet.

This is from 2003, but as far as I know things haven’t gotten any better with respect to the state of the worldwide fish stocks: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2003/05/0515_030515_fishdecline.html

A corollary of this should be “better to do lots of mediocre things than one thing that’s really good. That way, people will know you were trying, even if you are a little dumb.”
