HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE PROTEST AT KAUA`I FERRY MEETING

Honolulu Advertiser - October 25, 2007


I attended the Superferry informational meeting, where hundreds of people from Kaua`i came to voice their opinions.


Yet, The Advertiser says it was "dozens" of people.

I saw firsthand that 165 people signed up to testify, and certainly not everyone present testified.


So quit acting like it is a small number of people involved — it wasn't dozens, it was hundreds of people.


And in the four hours of testimony that I heard, only two people out of more than 100 supported the ferry's operation with no EIS before it sails.
