Can't help on this one. I've seen fish-tossing on TV a number of times, but I've never actually seen it done in the flesh. Recently, I don't get down to the Pike Place Market all that often, so you probably know as much about it as I do. In any film set in Seattle (i.g., Sleepless in Seatttle or the TV show Frasier) the first thing they show is the Space Needle, and the second is the sign over the Pike Place Market where the salmon-tossing takes place. I can see the Space Needle out my front window, but I've never actually been up in the thing!

I think what confused Bob's spelling of "politician" is that subconsciously he equated it with the word "pollution." Perfectly understandable.
