18/07/2008: "'NEMO' CLOWN FISH ... Great Barrier Reef(s)"

Why an 's' on Great Barrier Reef?

Because the G B R is not a single unbroken reef. It's 2 500 separate reefs.

We are using an out-of-date name courtesy of the discoverer Captain James Cook (Royal Navy).

Don't hold your breath waiting for a correction of the name.
