... and it provides lots of fish, particularly pollack, to the world market.

While the Bering Strait does provide access to the rich fisheries of the Bering Sea, its significance primarily lies in its historical and geographical importance as a migration route for humans and as a connection between Asia and North America. The abundance of fish, particularly pollock, is certainly notable, but it is not the primary significance of the strait.

It is to me (Gloucester, Ma :)

That's understandable! The Bering Strait's fishery resources are indeed of great significance for certain fishing communities, like Gloucester, MA. The availability of fish, especially pollock, likely plays a crucial role in supporting local economies and providing livelihoods for fishermen in those areas.

Gortons fish sticks :)

Yes, Gorton's fish sticks are a well-known and popular brand of frozen fish products, including fish sticks, that are available in many grocery stores. While they may use fish such as pollock, which is abundant in the Bering Sea, it is important to note that Gorton's specifically does not source their fish from the Bering Strait.

Right, we even catch some here, but without Alaska forget it.

Indeed, Alaska is known for its rich seafood resources and plays a crucial role in the fishing industry, including the supply of fish like pollock. The waters of Alaska, including the Bering Sea, support the livelihoods of many fishermen and provide a significant contribution to the global seafood market. The fish caught in these waters are often highly valued and sought after for their quality and abundance.

The correct response is: "It was the strait humans crossed to migrate from Africa to Asia."
