Yes, but wouldn't targeted education be more effective? Since Drew is filming, I would guess that maybe he could film the writing on the plastic, when there is some writing. The long shots are dramatic; but close ups would be helpful.

Just a thought, especially in light of what Lopaka said. Perhaps you can sort of get a feel for what region in the world this trash is primarily coming from? Maybe film words on the plastic, if there are any? We are all part of the problem, I know. But if it is shown that most of the...

After reading the entire thread, I have a couple of observations, FWIW. I can understand the OP wanting more attention from the DM. Like the other posters, however, I agree that it was not communicated to the DM. Sometimes our expectations are not based on reality. This lead the OP to...

Again, I apologize. My meaning wasn't meant to be political but it came across that way. And I truly did not mean to be insulting; however I see by using the term conservative that it was. I should not have said anything at all.

Drew, What is the mission of the voyage? I understand that you are making a documentary. Does the voyage have another mission besides showing the horror of the trash?

I agree with you. To all whom I offended, please accept my sincere apologies. I was trying to be funny regarding additional taxes. This is not the place for it. It came across, when re-reading it after your post, as arrogant and derogatory. Again, I apologize.

Isn't that eel just beautiful? I loved the squid shadow on the first clip, too. That squid looked like it just wanted you to go away, though.

I went out there on my way home from Waianae yesterday and took a couple of (bad quality) photos. I'll try to post one tonight when I get home. (Lisa - I may need your help)

davezwife, I'm curious why you went ahead with dives when you were feeling anxious. What made you anxious to begin with, when you were feeling it? Was it always the conditions? Do you think you crossed from anxious into panic? One more, then I'm done. Did you learn in your dive...

Wow. A number of folks can read your story and get something out of it. It seems as if your husband would do better with a different buddy. I know you want to share his experiences, but you are correct to quit after this experience (although it seems it was cummulative). But the...

There ya go! Tax the plastic bags. But we might need them to clean up the mess created when the conservatives heads explode.

Well, sure. Be sure to dispose of your plastic properly. Got it. But, Drew, was there any indication in what you saw of where this trash was coming from? Is there no way to target education to those countries that are the most responsible? And, are you saying we have to live with that...

Drew, What, other than documenting this, is being done? How is the money being spent? I'll keep looking, but it seems to me that fund raisers need a goal for getting trash ships out there and then a place to dispose of it. That is the first step. There needs to be some sort of...

In those days, there were so few members that you felt as if you knew everyone.

Well, Obama was hardly inconvenienced. According the radio, people were tripping over themselves to get his family a generator. Thank goodness for dive lights. My goal on Saturday was to go to the zoo and see the tiger cubs. The zoo finally opened and I saw them (cute little devils!)...

Also, keep in mind that wrecks become good reefs.
