How thoughtful!

Starting this weekend, San Francisco will allow fishermen to sell dabs, sole and rockfish from their boats at the popular tourist spot as part of a one-year pilot program.

The San Francisco Chronicle reported that San Francisco banned such sales in 2000 but reversed its policy on Sept. 12 after a campaign by fishermen looking to increase their income.

How sad is it that fisherman had to lobby to sell fresh fish at Fisherman's Wharf?

Fukushima was 2011... so just plain old politics.

Surprising how this doesn't need to be brought up in Third world countries like Thailand or India.

Oh great; yet another mundane who thinks government "allows" things. Where do I get my "permit?"
