Sometimes it takes me while to hear about things, but I just read about the Georgia Aquarium opening and WOW! It's now the largest aquarium in the world and has several unusual animals on display including whale sharks. I've got a soft spot in my heart for aquariums, party because I loved the Steinhart as a kid and I seriously considered becoming a marine biologist for a long time. HowStuffWorks.com has a long article on how the place is run and there's some great shots on Flickr. Haven't ever been to the South, but this might be something that would get me down there. Interesting that the project was initiated by Home Depot's founder.
