Once I found a set of denture underwater. It was in an area of loads of snorkelers. I couldn't find the owner but am sure he/she realised it was missing.

Most of all.......you get funding...

Cheers.
Hi Liang
OK...I understand what your ordeal is now. I would feel the same way too if I was in your shoes.

However, I've just called his collegue at Kota Kinabalu and found out that they have just got...
Hi Folks
