With any luck, I'll send you a report and just hope I have better luck than your fellow writer...<BR/><BR/>I've experienced crap like that in Asia before. The people there often come across as politicians - trying to find a short-term fix and instead creating a long-term problem.

I passed my Rescue Diver off Semporna in Malaysian Borneo and my Dive Master in Bali. Awesome place, hence my planned return later this year!Mosherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00374548021605224698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7804246.post-35237459315953986692009-01-19T12:42:00.000-05:002009-01-19T12:42:00.000-05:00Sheesh.
