I think what SOME people forget is that TR live is just another method (among many methods) for hobbyist's to share information. It is simply another way for people interact and learn from others in a totally new format. I seriously doubt that Rob ever intended it to be the bible on marine aquarium keeping.

"First, none of you who do the Podcast are experts in reefkeeping or marine aquarium husbandry. Much of the "information" you impart is not correct."- Marlene

I take exception to this comment. TRL is about hobbyist's helping hobbyists, none of us claimed to be experts... only hobbyists. I think the combined experience the crew has more than qualifies it to attempt to help people who may not have as much time into the hobby.Unfortunately, there are not nearly enough "experts" and the ones that are, certainly dont have the time to answer the same basic questions a million times. That is where we intermediate and advanced hobbyists can share our experiences and help out.

If you really have 30 years in the biz, you should think about joining in on TRL. By stating the information is bad, but not stepping up, how are YOU helping anyone? I dont have a problem being told I'm wrong, but at least tell me why. I personally would love to get ideas from someone with that much time and experience.
