Maybe SELC/conservation groups should just tell the Navy where it can have a range? OR arm the right whales and let them protect us.

This is how SELC makes their money. The proposed range isn't actualy in the "calving" area. Given time, John Edwards may be working for them one of these days.

Marine conservation groups have warned the Navy about this problem for years. I believe the Navy would have resolved the problem long ago if they hadn't been encouraged by the Bush administration to think they could ignore wildlife conflicts. Let's hope the present military leaders see the wisdom of negotiating a solution.
