The government of PNG seeking to open a MO fishery and seeking to do it right, or were they approached by MO types seeking to move into a new area and do it right? 2) Why not leave a pristine reef alone? or Does it make sense to start a collection venture in a "pristine" area with no history of collection? 3) What is/will be done to insure that the operation is carried out responsibly into the future. 4) Who are the stake holders/ adminstrators etc. besides yourself. Please answer these in as straightforward and detailed manner as you can-- no need to rehash the failures of the past --- just the on the ground facts and future intentions. Thanks. Randy

I'm not sure if this post was missed with the bantering, but I'd also like to know the answers to this.
As many of us here are quite interested in the work you are doing and following the thread, along with donating funds for the cause, I have to say I was surprised to have not receive a response from Graham a week or so ago when I wrote to ask where I should send my donation to.
Perhaps an answer to that could also be posted here?
