perienced naturalists. Call the office at 732-291-0055 for trip availability and then sendyour de po sit to assure _your _place...For acom p. lete. listin g of tri p,s consult y our field trip brochure .

Call or write tf you would hke another copy of that schedule.

February 6-8 Montauk Winter Weekend An extended weekend at the luxurious Mon- tauk Manor on the tip of Long Island, a base for hiking trips on the beaches and dunes, and around the Montauk Lighthouse. Good season for winter waterfowl and seals. Cost of $245 covers two nights (double occupancy), five meals, guided hikes, and evening program. Free pickup at LIRR station.

April 23-26 Assateague Spring Weekend This has been added to the 1998 schedule. It is much like the fall Assateague Weekend as far as arrangements are concerned, but it is timed to coincide with the height of spring migrations of birds (and butterflies). Spend a long weekend on and near this special seashore island ecosystem when the warblers and shorebirds are flying through, some of the winter waterfowl are still on the ponds, and the butterflies add their extra colors to the display. Also: fox squirrels, Sika deer, and, of course, plenty of wild ponies. Cost of about $250 per person covers three nights lodging (double occupancy), guides, lectures, and a seafood buffet.

May 3 Members's Day at Sandy Hook. Hikes on Sandy Hook, followed by a seafood picnic lunch (chowder, smoked fish, raw clams) and a short meeting to discuss the littoral affairs of the day. Cost is $10 per person, 2 for $18, kids under 12 free.

May 12-19 Belize Ecology Week Explore the rain forests and Mayan ruins of this Central American paradise, and dive or snorkel on the second largest barrier reef in

the world. Cost of $1250 covers guides, ground transportation, meals and lodging (double occupany).

May 27 Red Knots and Horseshoe Crabs, Delaware Bay A mid-week, mid-day trip to the bayshore to see much of the world's population of red knots plus other shorebirds filling up on freshly laid horseshoe crab eggs before their next migratory jump to their Arctic nesting range. Cost: $10 per person, 2 for $18 covers guides, clams, and some junk food.

May 29-31 Montauk Weekend To the tip of Long Island during spring migration to hike the beaches, the Walking Dunes, and Montauk Light. See Montauk Winter Weekend above for description.

June 4-7 Maine Coast Weekend A long weekend at an Inn on the Maine coast with hikes on nearby nature trails, a boat trip to Monhegan Island, and a hike to the top of Camden Hills m birds, wild f lowers , tidepools. Cost of $300 per person covers rooms (double occupancy, bathrooms down the hall), meals including a lobster dinner, boat trips, and guides.

June 1-21 Iceland The Society's second trip to see glaciers, wilderness, wildflowers, huge bird colonies, waterfalls, and geothermal pools. Stay at farm houses, tour by van. Cost: $2795 per person includes airfare, ferries, vans, lodging (double occupancy), guides, and most meals.

Mole Crab Observations ...Your article on mole crabs in Vol.23, No.

4 of the UNDERWATER NATURALIST was most interesting. I have watched them for years at Cape Hatteras, N.C., and I found your para- graph on reproductive behavior incomplete. You say the female "lays her eggs." Does she not carry them with her under her telson, as blue crabs do? When you pick up a large female it often seems laden with orange eggs - enjoyed by shore birds that seem to special- ize in mole crabs, and by fishermen who use them for pompano bait.

You also do not mention the timing of their shedding their shells. Is this correlated with mating, as with blue crabs?

A note: I have watched ghost crabs active- ly hunting mole crabs.

Thanks for your article. Joan Clarke

Morristown, NJ

The author, Dan Tardona, responds ...Good questions. Yes, the eggs are orange (bright) when first

" laid" but are attached to long hairs of female 's pleopods. They eventually change to a more grayish color just before hatching.

I don' t know the timing of their molt or shedding of shells. My understanding is that small males show up on the beach at the same time as the small females but the males are sexually mature. These males seek out year- ling females and attach themselves (up to seven on a single female). That is the extent of my knowledge without further study into the scientific literature. I have not personally observed in-depth sexual habits of these crabs - sorry.

I did not know that ghost crabs hunted the mole crabs - thanks for that info. I look forward to observing that behavior for myself.

More Toadfish .... In your issue of Vol. 23, No. 4, Thomas

Allen Stock contributes a Field Note "About Toadfish." He failed to mention a most unusual aspect about this fish. Two years ago I visited the NOAA aquarium at Woods Hole, Mass. They had an exhibit of toadfish with a

sign advising that the insulin producing cells, which are normally distributed randomly in the isle of Langerhans in the pancreas, are in this species concentrated into one site. This allows the instant production of diabetes by surgical excision of these cells. The only other way to induce this in animals is by complete pancreatectomy or by the injection of alloxin. They said the toadfish was used in research on diabetes.

Fishing Florida's Keys in Wintertime by STEPHEN C. SAUTNER

A cattle egret nailed what looked like a honeybee no more than six feet from where I sat in my little rental car, stuck in traffic on the Overseas Highway at Key Largo. I was heading south for my first- ever Florida Keys fishing trip, my trunk packed with nine rods, six reels, and a rainbow of flies, plugs and assorted other lures.

Along with the usual maps and charts, I had also brought a field guide to fishes, knowing that I might routinely find myself staring at some wriggling critter at the end of my line wondering, "What the hell is that?" I drove on, thinking about fish but continually distracted by

Stephen Sautner is a writer for the Wildlife Conservation Society(Bronx Zoo). His work regularly appears in TIIE NEW YORK TIMES, covering both fresh and salt water fishing. For a number of years he coordinated publi- cations for Clean OceanAction here at Sandy Hook.

the scores of different birds that seemed to line the highway. To a northerner, an osprey perched on a telephone pole in January is reason to swerve out of your lane, while a distant white ibis can make you crook your neck at a near-impossible angle. Earlier that day, three elegant wood storks glided past formation-style, causing me to nearly crash into the east- em Everglades.

Finally, I arrived at Marathon - - the approximate half-way mark along the 200-mile archipelago that stretches southwest from Miami Beach to Key West. At first glance, many of the north- em keys resemble the crowded beach towns of the Mid-Atlantic, with scores of motels, knick-knack stores, gas stations and strip malls competing for tourist dol- lars - - sort of like the Jersey Shore with palm trees. But Marathon marks the gateway to the less populated southern keys and the rich, wild backcountry of

shallow-water fiats where the Gulf of Mexico joins the Atlantic.

I stopped at a tackle shop that had a huge marlin mounted on top of its roof, seemingly ready to leap onto U.S. High- way 1. There I bought a three-day saltwater fishing license while marveling at the lengthy list of fishing regulations taped to the counter. Nearly every species that swims in Florida waters has some sort of closed season, minimum or max- imum size, or bag limit. It was a far cry from the wild days of Van Campen Heil- ner, who in the 1930s, recommended in his book, Salt Water Fishing, that a "sportsman" should limit himself to the following per day:

3 amberjack 6 kingfish 5 barracouta (sic) 10 mackerel 2 sailfish 6 grouper 5 tarpon

A thick manual spelled out the current rules in more detail, but I turned it down, resigning myself to release any- thing I might catch.

Then, as collateral for good fishing information, I laid out a small pile of assorted lures next to the cash register and casually asked about local condi- tions. The guy behind the counter had hair bleached almost white by the sun, and a grizzled, seen-it-all look. I guessed him to be a fishing guide on his day off trying to earn a few extra bucks or maybe doing a favor for a pal. He sat on a stool and explained in a pleasant southern drawl that a winter cold front had dropped the water temperature 13 degrees in 48 hours, spelling doom for the flats fishing for a few days. Every so often, the Keys get socked with an Alber- ta Clipper that sends tourists scurrying into K-marts to buy sweatshirts and hats and wonder why they flew a thousand miles south when it's just six degrees warmer than back home.

So I decided to fish at Marathon's north end, close to where I was, a large silver fish rolled maybe a hundred feet away, leaving a boil the size of a table-

top. Seconds later another fish came up even closer, followed by a third. At first they looked like the false albacore I sometimes see chasing spearing and sand eels each fall up north, but when a fourth fish surfaced showing a long ray on its lower dorsal, I realized they were tarpon. I scrambled to the end of a nearby jetty and began casting frantically.

Rolling tarpon, however, are not necessarily feeding; sometimes they're gulping a i r - -an adaptation to their tropi- cal, often oxygen-poor habitat - - other times they seem to be simply playing. Half an hour later, I was convinced that these particular fish were involved in a serious game of tarpon-tag.

BANG. Something jolted my lure and took off on a sprinting run, but stayed deep, instead of jumping the way a tarpon would have. "Bonefish?" I thought, "Spanish mackerel?" Unlike fishing my home waters where an unseen fish can be narrowed down to two or three species, in Florida literally dozens of varieties can be caught from the same spot using the same lure. After taking me around the end of the jetty and back again, a jack crevalle of a few pounds finally surfaced, still jabbing for the bottom with its over- sized yellow tail. For its size, it might have been the toughest fish I had ever hooked. I popped the bucktail from its jaw and released it, the jack all the while grunting away with its swim bladder.

Two casts later, another jack grabbed the lure. This one weighed only about a pound, yet still beat me up before I landed it. Just as I tossed it back, a brown pelican swooped from the jetty behind me, lunged its pouch beneath the surface, and s c o o p e d up my f ish. I wa tched , dumbfounded, as it calmly paddled over to a rock to digest its catch. Something told me this happens often in Florida waters. Six more jacks came over the next two hours before the tide finally s l ackened . The tarpon howeve r , remained elusive.

Late that afternoon, I returned for round two. An incoming tide now roared


past the jetty forming a swirling rip at its end. I began casting a chartreuse bucktail uptide, reeling it with the current to im- itate the shrimp I had seen the night before darting beneath a floodlight at the end of a dock.

Mid-way through my third cast, the lure stopped dead. My rod bucked, and another mystery fish began moving away in low gear in the general direction of Africa. Again, my mind raced, wondering what new species was dumping line from my reel. Ten minutes of pumping and reeling and the fish finally flashed a few feet off the jetty showing a distinct silver-dollar-sized black spot on its tail. It was a redfish of about five pounds M my first one. "The copper warrior!" I said aloud, feeling a little like I was meeting a celebrity in person.. Aminute later I slid my hand under its white belly and un- hooked the bucktail from its underslung mouth. Over the years, I've read my share of stories on "big red." Most have to do with nor'easters and slinging slabs of bunker over the outer bar at Hatteras. In the National Geographic Society's Book of Fishes there's a photo of a 15- year-old boy with an 82-pounder caught in the surf at Cape Charles, Virginia the world record at the time. According to the caption, for his catch the young angler won "a new automobile, an extra set of tires, and $50 in merchandise."The tide continued to flood. Half an hour had passed since my last hit when the line jumped, then went slack. At first I thought that a barracuda or shark had cut me off, but when I reeled up the loose line another very strong fish was on the other end, apparently eatng the bucktail then rushing toward me. It jumped 20 feet off the jetty, showing the solid black lateral line of a snook family, then raced off on a short run. According to my field guide there are four snook species found in south Florida waters: common snook, tarpon snook, swordspine snook (so named for the unusually long spine on its anal fin) and fat snook. All are caught by anglers , though the tarpon and

swordspine rarely reach more than 20 inches, while the fat snook runs up to about 10 pounds. This fish felt about half that weight but had the tell-tale trim lines of the common snook.

A few low clouds had rolled in from the north as the sun now hung low on the horizon. Two ominous-looking man-of- war birds soared like giant wasps over- head, their long, pointed wings and scissor tails making ever-so-slight ad- justments to the onshore breeze. This time I cast the bucktail directly into the rip and let it swing into deeper water. A fish promptly smacked it, hooking itself. For a moment it simply shook its head thumping my rod, but then swam off on a smooth, powerful run. All doubts as to which species I had hooked vanished forever when the line suddenly rose up, and a tarpon of about 25 pounds leaped from the water 30 feet away, its sides silver and its mouth wide and gaping.

And then it was gone. The tarpon had shaken the lure free on the first jump as nearly all tarpon do, then crashed back into the water, and presumably rejoined its school to frolic some more. I reeled in the now tattered bucktail and hooked it to a guide on my rod, retiring it for the night. By now the sun lingered as just a sliver of orange, and seconds later disap- peared completely, leaving me standing alone on a jetty on the Florida Keys seemingly surrounded by fish. []

Underwater Nauralists as Piscitourists by LINDA STEHLIK

(When the Littoral Society was founded 37 years ago, one of its goals was to encourage its members to observe and report the actions of marine life. Marine biologist tom us it would be useful to learn more about what ftsh do. L inda Stehlik's article reaffirms that goaL We need only add that the pages of this journal are always open to publish fish watchers' observations. Ed.)

Think of it: Fishwatching, a potential- ly popular hobby. After all, birding is extremely popular. People are signing up in record numbers to go to hot, insect-in- fested, muddy, or bone-chilling places to see and count birds. A recent article in Birding, a magazine devoted to this hobby, made the case that birding visitors have a recognizable impact on the economies of certain areas, such as Cape May, NJ, southern Arizona, Texas, and Alaska. In the United States, 300,000 to 1.8 million people are avid birders, defined as those who join clubs and make t r ips spec i f i ca l l y to see birds . Demographically they are of above average education and income. Birders keep life lists, US lists, state lists, and year lists. They photograph birds, sub- scribe to magazines, go to conventions and organize competitions. The word avitourism is used, in the article, as a specific subcategory of ecotourism.

Imagine if this sort of frenzy could be created for aquatic tourism. Why not popularize fishwatching or piscitourism? People could count fish they see while standing at a lake, while snorkeling, scuba diving, on underwater vehicles, by attracting them with bait, or caught on hook and line and then released, as long as the fish were observed alive in their

natural habitats. Yearly fish counts and competitions could be organized. Of course , fish seen in an aquar ium wouldn't count, just as one can't list birds seen in a zoo

Usually, books on fish identification are based on having the fish in hand, so that the placement of fins, counts of fin rays or scale rows can be studied. Fish tourism might create jobs for biologist guides, who could recognize fish underwater by color and behavior. Imaginea guided snorkeling tour, with a leader using hand signals or writing on a waterproof clipboard to alert tourists to unusual fish. Many fishermen can recognize fish just by the wake or splash they make, and could teach fishwatchers these skills.

Fishwatcher's Guide to West Atlantic Coral Reefs, by C. C. G. Chaplin, with waterproof paper, is useful in the field because it shows fish at a degree of detail one sees while diving or snorkeling. It shows males, females, and juveniles, which look very different in some fish families such as parrotfish and wrasses. Another book, Fish Watching: an Out- door Guide to Freshwater Fishes by C. Lavett Smith, is written in a lively style, describing freshwater habitats and how to observe and identify fish in each.

New books are needed about fish of temperate oceans, describing their behavior and their lives. Abook could have boxes to check off after spotting an adult male, an adult female, and a juvenile of each species, and room for notes on loca tion, size, or habitat. Ken Able of Rutgers University published a list of New Jersey estuarine and oceanic species, out to the 200 meter isobath. Maybe we could find fish that Able hasn't. Maybe other states already have checklists. Publishing checklists offish of the Atlantic coast, the


Caribbean, etc. could start people check- ing off fish they see.

There are already millions of fisher- m e n / w o m e n , aquar ium keepers , aqua r ium v i s i t o r s , scuba divers , snorkelers, underwater photographers, shell collectors, and beachcombers who are potential fishtourists. Fishtourism

might stimulate more people to work to conserve fish species and aquatic habitats.

Call it fishwatching or fishtotirism, or whatever sticks, let's develop this hobby. (And how about another group called mollusketeers, who count mollusks seen alive?) []

NOTE TO READERS

A large portion of this issue of UNDERWATER NATURALIST is given over to a tabular listhzg of fishes that have been tagged by American Littoral Society members and then recaptured and reported by anglers, some members, some not. The editors felt that readers deserved an explanation of this heavy dose of data. Below is a short description of the program, its mechanics, and the ways its results are used by marine biologists. Even if you are not an angler or a tagger, please take note of this hnportant Society program; it is a good example of how a volunteer program helps science and decision making. It is volunteerism in the best sense.

How the Program Works: ALS members buy fish tags. There are two types, both made of plastic:

spaghetti tags, about 6 inches long and as big around as No. 8 spaghetti, and lock-on tags, same diameter but designed to be applied without tying knots. We sell about 10 spaghettis for each lock-on. Tags are applied to the dorsal (top) part of the fish, back near the tail with a stainless steel needle. Tags come in kits of 10 with a postcard sized card for each tag. Tags and cards are numbered. After an angler attaches a tag, he or she fills out the the card that matches the tag number and mails the card to ALSHQ. The card asks for information about the tagger, the fish, and where it was tagged at what size. Cards are stored at ALSHO, and their data put into a computer. When a tagged fish is recaptured, both the tagger and recapturer are sent a letter giving the fish's history.

The ALS fish tagging program began in 1965 and is the nation's largest volunteer fish tagging program, about 430,000 tags in circulation, 225,000 fish tagged, (80 species), and about 2% (depending on species) of these fish recaptured. For those mathematically inclined that's about 400 miles of plastic tagging, 18 miles of stainless steel tubing for needles, and more that one million pounds of fish tagged and released. And, ALS members paid for the privilege of doing all the work.

Among the winners: the taggers who gain the satisfaction of tag and release fishing with the added incentive of building scientific knowledge about fishes; the fishes because they live to eat, grow, migrate, and reproduce; and science because all ALS data are readily available from us in printed form from current and old UNDERWATER NATURALIST journals, and from the mighty computers at the Na- tional Marine Fisheries Service Laboratory in Woods Hole.

Thus, the data are available to scientists studying migration and growth of fishes by species, size, or geographic range, and measuring mortality in fishes by using our data and their mathematics.

THE PERFECT STORM by Sebastian Junger W. W. Norton, New York. 227 p. $22 (cloth)

In 1995, the American Lit toral Society's annual meeting was held at Cape Ann on the shore of Massachusetts north of Boston, and the traditional seafood dinner was a lobster feast on the fishing docks of nearby downtown

Gloucester is the setting for the begin- ning and end of this grim, gripping tale of stormy woe. For it is in Gloucester that the swordfish longlining boat "Andrea Gale" ties up to fill its crew for the last fishing trip of the season to the Grand Banks.

What follows is the harrowing story of boats caught in a storm u actually a combination of storms u that bring with it 100-foot waves and howling winds. Before it is over boats sink, fishermen drown, and Coast Guard helicopters drop rescue swimmers into the thrashing sea. This is the famous Halloween storm of 1991, described in a haunting volume. It's soon to be in paperback. Buy one and read it indoors this winter; in the spring when you launch your boat and head away from shore you will have an entire- ly different outlook on the sea around you.

A DIFFERENT ANGLE: Fly Fishing Stories by Women Edited by Holly Morris Seal Press, 3131 Western Avenue, Suite 410, Seattle, WA 98121 266 p. $22.95 (cloth)

This is an uneven but ultimately worthwhile collection of fishing writing by (and often about) women, and anyone who doubts that women don't fly fish need only visit trout streams or tackle stores to see them in action. Next thing

you know, women will be smoking cigars.

The best article here is "Twelve Flew Into the Cuckoo's Nest" by Jessica Max- well about a group tracking down taimen, seven-foot, 200-pound Mongolian salmon. To get there you fly 14 hours across the Pacific, take a 37-hour train trip through the Gobi Desert, and then a 12- hour drive across the Outer Mongolian steppe. True the fish they caught were more in the 10 to 20 pound range, but they did see one rise out of a deep pool with a greenish head and eyes six inches apart, big enough to eat a horse.

Elizabeth Arnold writes well in "Gurry" about gutting salmon in Bristol Bay that gives the reader a good idea of what those kids are up against when they trek to Alaska each summer to haunt the docks for work. You may have heard her deliver news on National Public Radio.

Best approach to this book? Read it as stories about fly fishing and don't get hung up on whether men or women wrote them.

CORAL REEF FISHES By Ewald Lieske and Robert Myers Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ. 400p. $35.00 (cloth)

Inasmuch as this issue of the UNDER- WATER NATURALIST is dedicated largely to fish tagging and has an article extolling the virtues of fishwatching, it seemed a good idea to review a book about fish identification. So here it is, Coral Reef Fishes.

This book addresses fishes likely to be observed in and around the coral reefs of the Indo-Pacific and western Atlantic Oceans, and the Caribbean to a depth of 60 meters. It is no overstatement to say that this is a comprehensive field guide. Inside you will find identification of 2074 species and 2500 color plates depicting male, female, immature, and geographical varieties. The authors have


expanded their definition of coral reef to encompass reef adjacent areas such as harbors, bays, rocky tidepools, seagrass beds, sandy expanses, and open rocky bottoms. It is hard to imagine that most divers and snorkelers can find a species not described here.

The illustrations are nicely arranged and the descriptions informative and concise. The introduction contains well- written sections on habitat, fish evolution, r eproduc t ion , and more, all designed to make fish identification easier and your reef experience more enjoyable. Coral Reef Fishes makes a nice companion to the more general Divers and Snorkelers Guide to Fishes and Sea Life by F. Joseph Stokes.

THE SCIENCE TIMES BOOK OF FISH Edited by Nicholas Wade The Lyons Press, New York. 231p. $25 (cloth)

We have here a selection of articles taken from the Science Times section of The New York Times between 1988 and 1997 and, as the title suggests, all of them about fish. For years many of us have not so patiently awaited the Tuesday edition of the Times. After a short stopover in the sports section, we go directly to the science section with its varied science articles, almost always written in a style both entertaining and understandable. The articles chosen here exemplify that style.

Wade has divided the book into six general sections; The Evolution of Fish, Freshwater Fish, Freshwater Fish in Peri l , Ocean i c Fish , The S e a ' s Threatened Fish, and Shellfish and Others. The articles range from human interest to scientific detail, and the creatures from the unicellular Pfistera pis- cida to the giant squid. And all of it is fun and easy to read. The Times has paid particular attention to the sea's shallows. William Stevens has been a special friend of the coast and he is generously represented here. The articles are accom- panied by some of the best illustrative artwork to be found anywhere.

Interesting, fun, readable, recommended.

THE UNDERSEA EXPLORER: Secrets of the Blue Universe by Annemarie and Danja Koehler The Lyons Press, New York. 220 p, $24.95 (cloth)

This is a big, showy collection of writing and more than 200 good photos of undersea creatures by a mother-daughter team from Cape Town, South Africa. It includes information about where sealife is likely to be, how to approach and photograph it, and how to make sure it will be there for others to enjoy. It's subtitled "The Diver's Guide to Interact- ing with Marine Life," an apt description.

JOE AND ME by James Prosek William Morrow & Co., Inc., New York. 190 p. $23 (cloth)

When the author was 15 he got nabbed poaching fish in a Connecticut reservoir by Joe the warden, who saw goodness in the kid and took him fishing instead of to the slammer. They hit local streams for trout, lakes for bass, and Long Island Sound for crabs and striped bass The writing is simple, almost childlike in its delight over learning about fishing and hanging around with other anglers. The book is illustrated with the author's watercolors, and they are superb.

THE LAST PAGE

BLAME IT ON EL NINO El Nino, which in rough translation means "the ninth son," is caused by a dearth of anchovies

in the eastern Pacific or maybe it's the other way around. It's all very hard to keep straight. It governs ocean temperatures, rainstorms in California, and, coupled with the wisdom of groundhogs, the length of winter. It keeps hundreds of oceanographers and meteorologists at work, supports the construction of new telescopes and websites, and prolongs the pontifications of academics.

El Nino sent us scurrying to Cambridge, Massachusetts, to interview Fletcher Selkirk, Ph.D., Distinguished Professor of El Ninos at Harvard University. He looks like a cross between Alfred E. Newman and Prince Charles except for a trim grey beard, longish hair, and piercing, jaundiced eyes. Here are the highlights of our conversation:

UNDERWATER NATURLIST (UN): Could you start off by telling us what El Nino is, what causes it, and what the squiggly line over the second "n" in El Nino is?

Fletcher Selkirk, Ph.D. (FSPHD - - pronounced FizzFudd): El Nino is an enormous upwelling of warm, sulphur-laden water off the coast of Peru stinking to high heaven of hydrogen sulfide, what the common man or non-Ph.D, refers to as "that rotten egg smell." It appears to be caused by the earth's rotation or the politics of Orange County, California. No one really knows. The squiggly line you refer to is a marine bloodworm.

UN: How often does El Nino occur? FSPHD: Every nine years to the day, with astounding regularity. UN: Haven't recent El Ninos occurred more frequently? FSPHD: Yes. UN: Could you give us some examples of the impacts of El Nino? FSPHD (Reaching into a packed file folder of letters and clippings): Here's a letter from

Vern Fedders in Iowa who says his bean crop was half what it was last year, and up in Minnesota, all the locusts flew backwards one day this past August...

UN: Very interesting, Dr. Selkirk, but our readers are more concerned about the ocean. Any examples from there?

FSPHD: Indeed yes. Atlantic salmon numbers are down in northeast rivers, groundfish are nearly absent on George's Bank, fish are dying of some strange disease in North Carolina, they can't net mullet in Florida anymore, there's a big patch of dead water off the mouth of the Mississippi River, and in Hollywood they went way over budget for the movie "Titanic." Now you tell me El Nino isn't powerful.

At that point we thanked Dr.Selkirk and headed for Washington, DC, to find out what the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers knew about El Nino. We spoke to Colonel O. Truth (COTCOE):

UN: Is the Corps involved with El Nino? COTCOE: Yer damn tootin - - we're working on El Nino night and day. It's like being up

to your armpits in alligators. Our plan has three prongs: First, we want to construct a bulkhead on the oceanfront from San Diego to Seattle to protect the shore from El Nino. Second, we'll stop the current El Nino in its tracks with strategic bombing n El Nino becomes El No No - - that little joke gets a 7.3 on the laffometer here at Corps HQ. Third, we plan to prevent future El Ninos by changing the contours on the ocean floor of the Pacific - - 25,000 square miles of ocean dumping, plowing, and harrowing till it's smooth as the Great Plains. We've got a lot of unemployed engineers around the country because there are no more rivers to dam. El Nino should keep them busy through the 21st century. We're whipping up a Congressional appropria- tion as we speak. The Corps can sop up that so-called budget surplus in a minute. Just remember the Corps motto: Show us a crazy project, and we'll show you a crazy budget.
