I can't remember which day it appeared nor can I find it on their website, but here is the AP story appearning somewhere else:<BR/><BR/>http://diverseeducation.com/artman/publish/article_10222.shtml<BR/><BR/>I love this quote: "[Lingle] has said she wants to make sure West Hawaii residents are satisfied with the plans offered up by the university's Board of Regents. Lingle also has urged residents to make sure their vision of higher education matches what the regents are planning."<BR/><BR/>Seems like the governor seeks public participation when it suits her.

I believe the engines are the same or almost the same.<BR/><BR/>In the midst of the ferry battle, although I had a dozen more important things to do, I couldn't help googling around to learn more on the Superferry. I ran across engine issues which you can find here: http://disappearednews.com/2007/11/learning-about-ferries-rochester-ferry.htmlLarryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06742098296808508617noreply@blogger.com
