Our old Superferry is up in Nova Scotia and still going strong.

Just another reminder that we live in a dysfunctional state and can't have nice things

wow, almost 20 years.

from Wikipedia:
Quote
Ferry operations were suspended in March 2009 after the Hawaii Supreme Court ruled that a state law allowing the Superferry to operate without a second complete environmental impact statement was unconstitutional. The company went bankrupt as a result of these actions preventing service in Hawaii. On July 2, 2009, a Delaware Bankruptcy Court granted the company's motion to abandon both the ships Alakai and Huakai, ending all possibilities that the company might return to Hawaii.


yeah, sure woulda been nice, drive over to Maui, or the Big Island.   Instead, it goes to the Newfie's.  Woops, sorry, my bad, Nova Scotia is not Newfoundland.  Kinda close?


Why can't we have the nice things?

That would mean the people in government would have to work for a change.
