I'm not sure if you misinterpreted me, or whether you made a typo in your last post, but I certainly do not endorse the actions of the Japanese whalers. I meant (and maybe this wasn't clear enough) that if the whalers weren't there killing whales, there wouldn't be a…

If they weren't where they don't belong doing things they shouldn't be doing, there would be no problem. Well done Sea Shepherd.

Should be a close game, especially with Emerton out. Hope the Aussies nail Japan.

davidattokyo, '

Was the characterisation of 4,000 tons of meat as a "glut" yours or someone elses?

' When supply outstrips demand- as has been found in audits of the whaling industry, a glut is the result.

I hear Japan has a glut of approximately 4000 tonnes of whale meat in storage. As it contains up 200 times the safe level of mercury, I say to Japanese people 'eat and be damned'. Enjoy your ancient and precious 'tradition' of hunting with grenade tipped harpoons far across the…
