I'll Have the Broiled Sea Kitten

What's a "sea kitten"? That's the name that PETA wants us to call fish:
RADICAL international animal rights group PETA has launched its most bizarre campaign yet, demanding fish be renamed "sea kittens".

PETA - People For The Ethical Treatment of Animals - believes calling fish sea kittens will make sea food less appealing.

It wants to change the image of fish as slimy and slithery creatures by claiming they are similar to cuter, more popular animals. "Would people think twice about ordering fish sticks if they were called sea kitten sticks?" PETA asked on its website.

Every so often PETA comes up with an outrageous idea designed to do exactly what this idea did - get publicity. They're not serious, they just want to hear their group's name on TV.
