Out on the left coast in Marin county Calif we have just been relieved of a fantastic oyster company called DRAKES BAY OYSTER COMPANY having been around for a century. Secretary Ken Salazar felt the oyster company that is located on the Point Reyes National seashore land should be removed so to open up the land to the fat assed pinkos who want to hike the estero and litter it with their coke cans and marijuana roaches. Makes no sense removing a business loved by thousands of customers and restaurants around the bay area.

I agree with your point and sentiment, but would note for accuracy that Drakes Bay Oyster Company has been in business for ‘almost 80’ years, not a century.
