Rossington, you were further ahead when you were behind. Why not give it a rest. You don't have the slightest clue as to what goes on currently in Hawaii, let alone what might happen down the road. Stick to the political forum where you can 'sling your pap' without sounding like a complete moron. You are rapidly devolving into the Hawaii forums resident, and once banned, troll.
I suggest you make no further references to my behind.
to tell you the truth, NOTHING goes on in Hawaii, and NOTHING goes on here. NOTHING.
There you go confirming Einstein's theory about insanity again, and again, and again...
Regarding the widely misattributed quote you referred to...
Quote:
"The definition of insanity, as Albert Einstein once famously put it, is to do the same thing over and over again and expect a different result,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell last week in a preemptive strike against President Obama’s proposed jobs bill. .... But these Republicans were themselves guilty of a different kind of break with reality. Like so many American politicians before them, they were misattributing the “insanity” quote, which over the years has also been mistakenly credited to Mark Twain, Benjamin Franklin, and Chinese philosophers. These politicians might be surprised to learn the line’s true origin: Its earliest known appearance in print dates only to 1983, when prolific author and screenwriter Rita Mae Brown included it in her lesbian romance novel Sudden Death.
But it probably become known to the Republicans because Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous started saying it at their meetings in 1984, and those folks just can't get anything straight.
I've been to the beach every weekend for the past 6 months/since moving here. Plus driving along miles and miles of shoreline. I've never seen one seal of any denomination.

I have had 5 sightings in 10 years. And do a lot of exploration on foot. So be patient. MAny times there are warning flags and roped off areas by observing scientists. Often they are hard to spot as well because they look like a boulder or washed up log when they rest.
Depending on the season and which beaches you go to, you could see a monk seal every day on Kaua'i. I usually go to the beach 2-3 times a week, and I probably see a monk seal once a month. This makes sense, since the population is spreading down from the NW Hawaiian Islands. There are always problems with tourists ignoring the ropes, or just not seeing the seal and walking too close (they totally do look like rocks sometimes), but I've never heard of a property issue here. Though we do have 2 of the recent killings I believe--but one of the perps was a disturbed haole.
There in-lies the answer to the op question: Because they're disturbed.
