    What great marine biologists - blowing up reefs, ramming whales and massacring sharks just for the hell of it. Long live Cousteau & crew. 13 years 10 months ago

    monty .. I to was shocked by this... OK, this is ages ago, 'we' know how to do things better now.. but really? Blowing up fish? .. and even if we can see the whale incident as an accident (careless, inept I'd say, but ..) the shark slaughter? Oh come on .... that did no good for anyone. My only consolation about the whale death was that it ended up in the food chain. I grew up with the TV series of 'The undersea world of ..'.. I feel a betrayal of childhood! 5 years 11 months ago
