Its sad to know that people are exploiting such a organic thing. I visited Kauai five years ago. I camped in a local park on the west side of the island and was welcomed with so much aloha. I cherish my time with the wonderful locals i met being invited to cookouts and into there homes. On a no surf day i drove out to Queens Pond and combed the beach for kissing shells, and found two beach worn sunrise shells. I was shown how to make a necklace with the kissing shells and sunrise shells. I was also given some special little yellow snail shells from a outer island. I forget the name of these shells, but I made two wonderful necklaces for my wife and mother. mahalo
