Just for you AJ, I didn't get to drive the boats more than once a week, but I had some ex professional reef fishermen who had over 20 years living 9 months a year in the Swains, who had each forgotten more about coral & fish than the entire staff of AIMS, The GB Marine park mob & James Cook had ever known driving them for me. Those blokes only survived if they knew an awful lot about coral, water & weather.

They don't have my BSc. but they are the sort of people who learn, but only talk when they really know what they are talking about.

I had learned a bit too, in 6 years cruising the islands & atolls of the Pacific. Then 3 years building jetties hand grafted into the fringing reefs of those atolls & volcanic islands meant I spent more time getting personally acquainted with real coral, not fish tank stuff ashore in Townsville, than most scientists.

I also learned a bit in 3 months with the shark callers of the Solomons.

I also learnt a bit from the 2 Ph.D. students I supplied outer reef transport & accommodation to over a couple of years. I was impressed they actually wanted to go out to the reef, & live there for some time to do real research.

Keep up your insults, I find then funny. Once you've been there & done that, jibes from the would-be’s of this world don't mean much.

Indeed a day to rejoice!

Next, Trump should also leave the U.N., declare them a terrorist-organisation, kick them out of his country and confiscate their Manhattan real-estate.

I don't know whether or not Yuyutsu is serious, but it sounds like a good idea.

Sorry AJ Phillips. The predictions re an ice age in the 70's were real whether you like it or not, the fact that it was rubbish is another story, but the predictions were definitely made.

The Los Angeles Times, The New York Times, and other
major American newspapers tell us that : -

"The US is the biggest carbon polluter in history.
It just walked away from the Paris climate deal."

195 nations have signed the agreement. And the reaction
has been huge. Widespread condemnation from political
leaders, heads of state, corporate executives, members
of the President's own staff, members of his own party,
his own daughter, and of course from many voters.

The US is the biggest carbon polluter in history.
Walking away from the Paris climate deal was sure to
cause a stir.

This move undermines America's standing in the world and
threatens to damage humanity's ability to solve the
pollution problem that can affect us all.

America's states, cities, and businesses are
stepping up and have expressed the will to do even more to
lead the way and help protect for future generations the
one planet we've got.

President Trump stated that he was representing Pittsburgh
not Paris. Well, the Major of Pittsburgh responded to
the President:

"I can assure you that we will follow the guidelines of
the Paris agreement for our people, our economy, and
future."

The withdrawal process could take nearly 4 years to complete,
meaning a final decision would be up to the American voters
in the next Presidential election.
