The larger ones that Eric touched were NOT transplanted and will never be transplanted. No one knows if there are pathogens that haven't been identified by research yet on them. They are being taken care of by Craig of UF.
The smaller corals (or the Gold Bars) were offered for research and then mixed with Pacific corals too making them
useless for research.

In your quest for truth, why isn't any of that information on your website? What else, of importance or relevance, is there to find out?? Whatever questionable actions Eric took, there seems to be a conclusion of the outcome of the project, and the corals under Erics care has been returned.

See, this is what I don't understand David. My tax dollars pay to keep these corals protected. I don't mind that because America has so few reefs in their waters and I want them protected.....however, I want them protected PROPERLY!!! Unfortunately, the corals that Eric touched will;
- Never be used for research
- Never be transplanted
These corals are just as useless as previously chewed bubble gum. Sure, the chemicals in the gum are the same, but no one who originally gave you the gum wants it back.
I don't know why that doesn't upset people.

I don't think Eric mixing regionally different corals was against anything originally agreed upon.

As an American taxpayer......I have a BIG problem with that!!!

www.opportunitylost.org - The "Borneman Corals" is so one-sided it's unbelievable. The whole site makes it look like Eric B had some huge involvement in the Truman Annex relocation project and his actions alone caused some huge loss/impact. But the truth is - the only opportunity lost was his ability to further use corals given to him for research purposes. Nothing adverse to Sara's argument will ever be posted on opportunitylost because the truth isn't really being searched for. Sara is in a corner right now and is grabbing for straws as the only arguments left is "I have reason to believe this isn't true" and "Here are some other things that make Eric a bad person" but I'm sure that keynoter just made up those numbers and facts.

That Keynoter article is a laugh....they got to pick and choose what to report.
I used to work in Government Contracting. Want to know what happens when you file a FOIA request? You get it ALL as it's cleared for government purposes. If you think that the website that published the results of a FOIA request is one-sided, then the entire government is against Eric.
