| James, the American Marinelife Dealers Assoc. was Steve Robinson's organization. AMDA is driven by the profit motive while MAC, ostensibly, is concerned with the marine environment. This is not to say that Robinson and Ireland do not deserve credit for being the first to generate "awareness" of the cyanide issue.
But my point here is that the producers and dealers have been reluctant to sign on with a program that is not of their own making.
