Apparently it's official now, the GTBUP has received official state approval. We now have a new underwater preserve."
and later posts:
"I congratulate them as well.
You "sense displeasure" ?? Why? Are you psychic?
I "sense" someone trying to create controversy where none exists. This was an informational post only. It matters not one bit weather you believe it or not, especially since you are supposedly in Nevada."

If I passed information along, I would want to show proof. Since his started with "Apparently", very rare do I ever start a sentence with that word and embrace the idea.
Again, not creating controversy, but taking the word from someone who just "heard it" and making us go looking for proof? But that's all moot now since I saw the official press release. I would appreciate anyone making a statement at least back it up with proof. I, for one am very excited since I have been following this group when I heard about it on a dive in Long Lake a few years ago. Watching the "controversy" on this board was disconcerting considering some were miss-informed by a few who were against the formation.
I'll post my congratulatory comments on another thread. Way to go GTBUP!
