If this is such a "deadly two day event", then why does FWC continue it every year?

What is the big attraction for these gomers? It's a big cockroach that you can buy at any grocery store. Is it because it's free? Or so they think. Let's see- gas for the boat, oil, gas getting the boat to the marina or launch, equipment, etc. Fighting with other morons and bubba's to risk drowning. Yep sounds like fun to me! And I was on my way on the deco stop death pool thread before they closed it. I called 8 with 2 never seen again.
It's an economic boost to the keys during the slow season. It has more to do with politics than resource management.
Jeez. This is why I would never go out there with all those crazies at mini-season. I dunno, maybe the state ought to consider doing away with it for the good of everybody.
Ironically, my father (whom I have not spoken to for quite a long while) called me up last night because he heard about all the fatalities and wanted to know if I was out there diving in all that mess. Heh, go figure.
