Sweet Willie took this to mean your number of dives has gone down over the years; I read it as the quality of diving in Cayman has gone down. Who wins the prize?

My experience has certainly been not only that I dive less - we still have a dive boat, it just gets used every X years now instead of every weekend (it's tough to get in the water in Northern California and certainly other things start to take priority) - but also that the quality of most dive sites has diminished. I was terribly underwhelmed by the Great Barrier Reef this year and have certainly seen the diving in Hawaii deteriorate.
