Yup. It also evolved during a time with far higher CO2 and more acidic oceans, so the ocean acidification thing might not be as scary as they'd hoped. Plus, the ocean is basic, not acid.

The argument is not that ocean is acid but it is losing pH. 7.0 is neutral and above that is alkaline and below acidic. Acidification of the ocean is analogous to: it cooled from 110 F to 85 F, not that 85 F is cool.
