6/23 - The Power of Media! Jean Michel Cousteau makes an Hawaiian Ocean fan of President Bush

In a stunning move, El Presidente Bush made the Northwest Hawaiian Islands into the largest marine reserve in the world.. Rumor has it that it was a viewing of Jean-Michel Cousteau's film about the region (which particularly noted the accumulation of marine debris) which moved him to follow in the footsteps of the previous president who first got the ball rolling with an executive action near the end of his second term. So for all you cynics out there who say, "What good is another documentary film going to do?" just ask Monsieur Cousteau.
