    Mitsubishi has been doing this for a while because of the threat of a CITES Listing...they will stand to make a ton of dough if the commercial trade of bluefin ever ceases....Doug

    Kinda Ironic that Mitsubishi means 3 Diamonds...

    Just like DeBeers, Mitsubushi will corner the market on a natural resource and artificially inflate the value - Monopoly
