I came across this posting by Eric Borneman on another forum and he endorsed reposting it here for WAMASers.

Thanks Jon -

 

This is the panel discussion I posted as a sticky in the General Discussion thread.

 

I have more information about this I want to share with everyone - just busy these days getting ready for the conference next week.

Heading down from the Reston area if anyone looking for a ride down?

Here is the way this discussion is going to happen. Eric B will start off with a quick presentation on the threats and ensuing decline of reefs. Mitch will then follow with his presentation of what he has been able to accomplish with captive A. palmata at Omaha Zoo. The rest of the panelists will be briefly introduced, and then we will open the floor to questions from the public.

 

This all gets started Thursday evening at 6:30pm in the zoo's visitor center auditorium.

 

Cheers

Mike
