I can't help but wonder if this this is related to the lack of returning salmon on the Columbia. They've been reporting it on the radio, but I can't find a link. They've been expecting thousands, and the current count is something like a few dozen.
Google News for salmon columbia (http://news.google.com/news?q=salmon%20columbia&hl=en&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&sa=N&tab=wn) turns up a bunch of stories about this, and one comparing DePaul University adjunct professor Thomas Klocek to professors at Columbia University and to "Salmon Rushdie". Sounds like it's mostly being blamed on river level fluctuations, which in turn are blamed on dams.
