Hi Tweeters,

A simple, (because my husband takes our old newspapers to work and I
have to do this from memory), explanation of the Greenpeace happening in
Vancouver is that some irate loggers put a logboom around the Greenpeace
boat and wouldn't let it out of the harbour. They were threatening to sue
Greenpeace for lost wages because of a Greenpeace protest somewhere here on
the coast lost them several weeks of work. The boat eventually got out.
Sorry for lack of details, I feel I should know more about these things that
are affecting the life in this province.

Catherine
