Superferry under attack again...


Taylor and I went to McDonald's for breakfast this morning, and I lean over to look at the Star Bulletin and what do I see on the front page? The Superferry... Well, it turns out, that the State of Hawaii had been pressured by the Hawaii Superferry to accept them before June 30, 2005 or they wont come to Hawaii. This is all according to an audit that's supposed to be released today. It appears that the State says if they had not made the exemption, the superferry would not have come to Hawaii, and they were under a lot of pressure to make a decision before the deadline. Garibaldi, President of the Hawaii Superferry, said that they were only stating the facts which was that they had a deadline to meet. The future of transportation in Hawaii isn't looking too good. Gas prices going way high, without Aloha the plane rates are going up, and shipping costs are going up too. What are we going to do???

Check out the article at Star Bulletin.
