Hawaiians, Shorelines & “Mother Ocean’s” Revenge

[Tink]

Gypsy-- you answered your own question in the statement that most local males do not want to go to college, but instead aspire to be in law enforcement or hair styling and not achieve a higher education to become astronomers, engineers, etc.. The only shaft they get is what they ask for in not wanting to achieve a higher goal in life for themselves.
As far as PGV as a possibility of getting away from oil, you betcha. The infrastructure is in place, the State is comfortable with it, so they probably will downplay anything else, unfortunately as the government is entrenched in their "good ole boy" network and they don't like "newcomers".
