Real they may be, I never said they were fake but merely incomplete and when taken together, only allows assumptions, which sadly has led to accusations being made. The permit .doc recently posted is nothing at all like the other documents previously posted. I was just saying that the most recent addition is pretty useless as is, just as any blank, unsigned contract would be. Just kind of hard to bind someone to it.
I'm also doing my best right now to not go into a rant about perspectives here, but a man made canal in the United States that will be dredged on a regular basis verses Indo-Pacific natural reefs being emptied of thousands upon thousands of corals and fish on a daily basis for our hobby just seems a bit out of whack to me. If taken in that perspective, how can one claim a great love for corals and reefs and not appear to be simply on a mission of revenge and self glory? I don't know, maybe I see the destruction of reefs far to often and for far too many reasons, to get upset about a few corals that found themselves growing in/on man made structures. How many corals and coral larvae get blast cleaned off of oil rigs, ships and pipes each year? How many corals have each of us killed off? How many corals does that add up to each year? Sorry, but I just find it very difficult to find actual cause for the war drums to be beaten upon. Well, so much for avoiding a rant....lol
