Dear Friends
For the better part of 2010, I have been traveling to collect information, photos and stories to tell the story of harvesting divers around the world. The main story is in Alert Diver being mailed out this week. Or, if you can’t wait, you can read it online at AlertDiver.com.
This link will take you to the primary article. At the bottom of that story are links to the second article and the photo essay. Or you can follow the additional links I have provided below.
If you’re not a DAN Member, you can still see the article, but you’ll have to give up your email address to do it. It is free, but you have to sign in.
