reliable estimate data they are using, this creates numbers from year-to-year using that that data. >> several hundred fishermen gathered on the dock earlier today to rally against the regulations they say could decimate the fishing industry in new jersey. the new rules cut 30% the amount of summer flounder boats able to catch and keep every year. >> they're going to put a lot of people out of business. and it's terrible on about so you kids get off their fishing can't keep the fish. >> right now you're able to keep five fish, 1818 inches or longer. this could go down to just two fish 19 inches or longer. commercial fishermen who we saw here say you have to catch up about 19 or 2020 smaller fish

before you get a 19 incher. this can come here in the summer they are 30 or 40 bucks if you're going to come out with no fish. >> cutting two fish in 19 inches will hurt the business. those regulations seem a little ridiculous. the atlantic state marine fishery council said the vote next week could stop one of five plans to curtail what they say it's die now. they're running out of fish in there being over fish. the fishermen say the data is not right there's plenty efficiency. >> it's an industry killer at many levels. obviously there's multiple sides to the data. the question is is this an obama air a regulation that is now finally hitting its deadline? >> it's hard to say this came from the obama administration.

12:49 am
carl's business machines is one of the coolest places i've seen in a while. they have typewriters of all colors. sizes, representing all different decades. it's a story book about america's history. they even have the first ever ibm typewriter. oh my god. it's like agent. i'm in love right now. this is like an untold story in itself. what may may be considered old-school is actually new school. this business is booming and thriving. so if you thought typewriters were dinosaurs -- no way. >> you go around a lot of seasons for different purposes. so you will still find them in and offices, the electric, the younger kids are bringing on them and believe it or not. >> i have to hit it harder?
12:50 am
>> wow. i don't want to mess it up. now the surprise, these vintage typewriters in his shop are often on the big screen. >> men in black did the first one we thought it was a prank call someone called up and said you have ibm's electrical and typewriters. we said yeah we thought maybe they wanted to buy one or two. then they call back and wanted 20. >> most recently their machines were featured in the oscar-nominated film, hidden figures. >> these were rented for hidden figures. so i tap into my inner hollywood and pretended to play catherine johnson who is the woman behind the mask who got the first man into space i've been up for a challenge before and i'm going to prove myself or the this time. i'm going to send the first man to the moon.
12:51 am
that is the difference from earth to -- [applause] nailed it. i'll edit everyone be the judge. but it's all right. you are fabulous. the judgment of yourself is fantastic. they even gave me the honor of putting my autograph on one of those into each typewriters. >> i don't how the business is thriving. haven't seen a typewriter anywhere. anything old. polar i cameras, typewriters, it seems silly. there's a reason why it's nostalgic and cool because it's 100% useless. it cannot update files. it won't save it. it puts puts you in thought with your mind.
12:52 am
