Many thanks to those who have sent us their comments. Here are a few.

This proposal for Whitsundays Heart of the Reef Discovery Centre has excellent merit and significant potential to be an eye on the Great Barrier Reef and its historical past and how AUSTRALIA is responding to its immediate surrounds and ongoing importance to survival and continued healthy longivity.

Brilliant idea! Would certainly benefit our tourism industry and educate the public about our unique environment! Knowledge is caring!!

I think this would be a great asset to the community and add another interest to attract locals and tourists.
