HI Superferry: No interest in input on Oahu?

Two good articles in today's Honolulu Star-Bulletin. First, a report on a total of 12 people showing up for the Oahu EIS public input meetings:

My comments to that:

Oahu is over it. There were about that many people riding it the last few days it operated. And when/if it restarts again I doubt Oahu people will have the disposable income to waste on this roller coaster thrill ride to the outer islands. Where are the "thousands" of people on Oahu who "want" it? Where are all the paid employees showing up to lobby on the company's behalf? Could it be that they are a little disappointed too with the unreliable employment?
Move it to Puget Sound...where it can be useful.

And a nice opinion piece also today in the Star-Bulletin regarding the late state audit of this:
