My vote: YES


Discussion: There was a time when envelopes were being pushed. Condello was doing unprecedented things, the Herman's were plowing new ground, fisheries professionals like Grimes and Beasley were achieving new and unheard of results. It was easy and exciting to follow in the 'wake' created by these and other visionaries.

Now, Brian, you've pushed ahead using technology, resources, and good old fashioned hard work!!
