00:00So let me tell you a funny story.
00:18It was springtime and I went down to the beach and there was all these horseshoe crabs.
00:24And they're all one on top of another, right?
00:26They're all mating.
00:27But I'm like a little kid.
00:28I didn't know they're mating, right?
00:29I didn't know what's going on.
00:30Nobody told me anything about horseshoe crabs.
00:33Nobody told me that spring is their mating time.
00:35Nobody told me anything, right?
00:37So I'm this like little peace, love, and happiness child.
00:40I think they're fighting.
00:42So I'm going down.
00:43I'm separating all the horseshoe crabs, right?
00:46I'm separating them because I think they're all fighting.
00:48I'm like, go live in peace.
00:49Go live in peace, right?
00:51And so I always joke around that if there's one reason why Barnaca Bay doesn't have a huge horseshoe crab population,
00:57it's because of me back in the 1970s separating all the horseshoe crabs, right?
01:02Because I just thought they were fighting.
01:04There was no environmental education when I was growing up.
01:07And it's better now, but it's not like it should be.
