From that link:

"On February 25, 2004, the Senate Foreign Relations Committee voted 19-0 to send the resolution of ratification of the Law of the Sea Treaty to the full Senate for advice and consent. The Bush Administration said on February 7, 2002, that there is an “urgent need for Senate approval” of the Law of the Sea Treaty."

19-0 and the Bush Administration is behind it -- that's a lot of momentum.

Who benuifits from LOST as an American and what is so good about this new control from the UN.


What more lawyers?

International Seabed Authority

International Tribunal for the Law of the Sea

Commission on the Limits of the Continental Shelf

I guess the LOST question was lost during the debates.
