Great article tim. I just wanted to reassure you that the reef is still pretty amazing. I go out there on a weekly basis. Although yes there is some damage, like you say mainly to the stag horn corals and table corals. Its not destroyed and still amazing out there.

SCUBA Diving and Asthma
- For as long as I can remember I wanted to SCUBA dive. I remember being fascinated by my dad’s cylinders of air with yellow flaking paint and belts of lead weights that lay around the house, and the promise of what lay beneath the surface of the sea.
