Check out the Trib's front page Waveyard article from Sunday. Its pretty sensational. Here are the facts that they have:
1. A guy from Florida says the wavepool can't be done.
2. One of the Waveyard guys had a business deal go south on them.
3. These guys are being financed by a huge Australian finance company.
Gee, scandal scandal! Its weird. The pictures don't match up with the story at all. Why would the Waveyard guys be all smiles in the midst of a hit piece? Did the Trib lie to them about what the story was about?
You know what else is great? The ensuing 6 page comment war between the Yes folks and the No folks. The accusations are flying and the conspiracies are running deep. Are people being paid to gin up these comments on both sides?

I have half-wondered if some commenters are being paid to drum up support for WaveYard (their zeal is unmatched) but I doubt anyone's getting paid to voice against them. Cue bono? Sunsplash? Give me a break.
The real argument is for or against government subsidies, plain and simple. While this one may (or may not) be of more value than the MAC or Riverview, it's a still a subsidy. And where do we draw the line on subsidies? Arbitrarily based on the good of the whole? Who decides? What are the determining factors? Any guidlines? Precedents? That's an easy in for corruption and we should stay far, far away.
