Of course you�re right. Divers spoil or at least disturb the underwater nature only by being there, where no human being normally could survive. You may call this a question of moral integrity, to my opinion that word is a bit to big, as it should be just a question of good manners, that you don�t walk on the reef or treat fish like dolls. As far as I experienced PADI-instructors are very aware of that and when I was on the Maledives I heard them often scream at divers who didn�t take care of the reef. Anyway, I�m sitting in cold Germany and am dreaming away to the Caribbean. I�d give an arm for being in the sunshine right now! (Please excuse my maybe funny English, I�m German) Bye, Susanne
