[Coral-List] The Great Guana Cay Debate

[Tom Williams]

Jim
The list and your efforts are always deeply
appreciated.  

I agree regarding Cay vs Resiliency...they are linked
-globally/locally.

Being experienced in coral reefs and EIR, EIS, EIA,
World Bank, Asian Dev. Bank and Int.Am.Dev.Bank, I
believe as a specialized group of technical and
sceintific specialists we can and should be doing more
for the protection of reefs (wetlands, tropic forests,
vernal pools, etc.) which I have seen lost to the
world perhaps forever. 

Some steam is a good thing-no stress no gain.

Hey, Team, this Guana Cay debate has been a great
focus from the more general problem discussions over
the past two weeks and has been constructive....but I
do see the steam rising in the cauldron.
