There is very little
commercial fishing done in Puget Sound, which is an inland estuary of
the
Pacific Ocean.

Looks like a pretty active commercial salmon fishing site to me

But I guess the pollution in the Sound has caused a decline in the
salmon
population:

Tell you what. You sit and Google your backside off, and I'll continue to
live
here my entire life. Then we can wonder who's got a handle on whether
there's a
lot of commercial fishing activity within Puget Sound.

So my sources are wrong? How so?

And where did I say "a lot"? Don't try to spin this one like you usually do
when cornered.

BTW: You opened up this mess by claiming your waters were unpolluted.
Remember saying this?

"Send me your address and I'll send you some smoked salmon.

Not because I lost the bet: (you never accepted the bet or stated what
stakes
you offered on your end).

Not because Bush/Cheney made it all the way through their convention without
attacking the Demos: (which was the specific subject of the bet).

But because some pure food from unpolluted waters might do just a bit to
help clarify your often fuzzy perspectives."

Nice try Chuckie.

No, *I* said there *wasn't a lot* of commercial fishing in Puget Sound. Your
response was to fire off more links to pollution stories. Are we having the
same discussion? The absence or presence of pollution in Puget Sound has
nothing to do with the amount of commercial salmon fishing done here.

(There is minimal commercial fishing in the sound, there is far more sport
fishing than commercial.)

But anyway, I only promised to send you some smoked salmon from "unpolluted
waters". Never did I say that your salmon was coming from Puget Sound.
