  1. Time to move on

    Hey, I joined reefs.org over 8 years ago. Was one of the founding members of the industry forum and had an opportunity of meeting members of the forum and exchanging emails and lengthy telephone calls during that time. Learned a hell of a lot here and went on several trips to south-east Asia...
  2. Recession and the Marine Industry

    Kylen wrote """How would the US stand to benefit from a Canadian recovery, which IMO is not going to happen the way you see it? Most of our trade is the export of natural resources. If the US economy is still lagging, what we do here is not going to drag the US economy out of recession.""""...
  3. Recession and the Marine Industry

    Dizzy What you posted could not be further from the truth. 1. Liberal???? I am a member of the Conservative Party of Canada and always have been. I have held top positions in Conservative youth both in the Province and at University. I was recently asked to be part of an advisory group to the...
  4. Recession and the Marine Industry

    Kylen 1. How you interpreted my original posting as my suggestion that Canadians are holier than Americans is beyond me. The point of the thread was that things are moving positive in Canada and as USA is our largest trading partner, the USA stands to benefit. 2. Business bankruptcies are down...
  5. Recession and the Marine Industry

    Kylen, The information I posted is accurate. Read the Conference Board of Canada report, Desaultiers report on auto sales in Canada and Royal -Lepage Real Estate report on Sales and read a newspaper once and a while. And no Kylen I do not agree with you that the worst is yet to come. The...

  7. Recession and the Marine Industry

    I know it is hard to be positive when one of your own bites the dust. But, really, truly things are going to get better and very soon. The economy in Canada that went into a recession 8 months ago is improving. Real Estate sales are now near record. Prices of homes are slowly rising. Sales of...
  8. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    I assumed from that one would have to be a marine ornamental breeder to be involved. Perhaps I am wrong
  9. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Thanks for posting the results for those who are interested but are not members. Gresh I guess the difference from you and I is that if the rope was around your neck, the rope would break, eh. And no, I can't join but I applaud the efforts of those that are bringing aqua=cultured fish and coral...
  10. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    For those of us that have been following the thread would you kindly post the results of all candidates here and the votes they received. Also a summary of where they stand like pro, agin, neutral would be helpful thanks wayne
  11. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Thales, it seems to me that with all the outstanding issues, many of which have been posted here, a 100% commitment would be needed from the get go. It appears to me from reading the postings here that the new board will have to deal with them immediately or them will lose membership and...
  12. Acan Info

    I can't comment on the sustainability of acan collection. IMO, more and more reefers are moving away from SPS as they present a rather static look to the tank. LPS and softies are coming back. I would like to know why acans are so expensive and if some of them are aqua cultured. One of the...
  13. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Let me make this simple for you Gresham. 1. I questioned the use of this board to air MOFIB linen. 2. Posters politely answered and I accept their answers. 3. Thales is in a conundrum which we all experience sometimes and asked for advice. 4. I gave Thales good advice. Wayne
  14. What's Going on at MOFIB?

    Sure Thales Don't get involved with an agenda. Get involved and do the best possible job you can. You then will command the respect of all parties. Wayne
