If so, I can understand your misguided statements, you haven't been exposed to state of the art information regarding the marine life environment. It isn't your fault. Rusty can do much much more to act as a positive role model, but it will take an interest in marine life and a genuine desire to see past his "bottom line" to assume this role. Rusty could be a wonderful leader in adopting and teaching responsible behaviors and attitudes. Then, he could truly be a great asset to not only the diving community, but also to the marine environment. Perhaps if he took some marine science courses it would help him a lot - and it would help his business as well.
