From The Editorial Desk
On one side of the battlefield is retired science teacher Jim Willoughby whose concern about the tide pools prompted him to charge into the fray. He's condemned the lax regulations covering tide pool management, and the even more lax enforcement of the regulations. On the other side of the field is a squad of marine scientists and the California Department of Fish and Game-people who are equally committed to marine conservation. Although Willoughby looks like he's outnumbered, so far, the war is going his way. He's managed to get a new city ordinance concerning the tide pools passed, and has the DFG scrambling to find a way to retain control over tide pool management.
