http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/08/us/08reef.html?_r=1&oref=slogin; Artificial reef, anyone? From the page: "One by one, a machine operator has been shoving hundreds of retired New York City subway cars off a barge, continuing the transformation of a barren stretch of ocean floor into a bountiful oasis, carpeted in sea grasses, walled thick with blue mussels and sponges, and teeming with black sea bass and tautog. "They're basically luxury condominiums for fish," Jeff Tinsman, artificial reef program manager for the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, said as one of 48 of the 19-ton retirees from New York City sank toward the 666 already on the ocean floor."

Andros Barrier Reef, Bahamas | Outside Online: Feb 20, 11:04am 1 review environment, travel, tourism, ocean, reef
http://outside.away.com/outside/destinations/200802/andros-barrier-reef-baham...; While I appreciate that Outside magazine points out the magnificent reefs, the title itself is LAME - see it when you can. It implies the every man for himself attitude. It misses a great opportunity to show how we all can protect the measure that belong to us all. Maybe that is why I stopped reading outside mag a while back. I am stumbling it because a friend forwarded the url to me.
