probably never find the owners of these stuff. But some items I
come across with, you'd think I should have no problems contacting
the owners.

A few years back, I saw an expensive Blackberry Pearl on the path.
Checked the contact list, no ICE(In case of emergency). So I dialed
a few numbers, some I got voicemail. Some numbers that did answer
and I explained that I'm trying to find the owner of this Blackberry,
replied that they don't know anybody with a Blackberry. Eventually
someone was able to forward my number to the owner, so phone and
owner are reunited. She gave me a box of chocolate as a reward;
how did she know I love chocolate?

Today I picked up a wallet lying on the path on my way to work. Got to
my job and started snooping. Usual stuff you'll find in most wallets; cash,
dirver's lic.(California), organ donor card, credit cards. But I don't know
how to contact him, I call the contact number on his donor card(signed
2005, California DMV), left a message on the voicemail. I called his
Citbank card and explained the situation, left my contact number for
them to forward to their customer. But this was a few hours ago, and I
still haven't heard from this guy. By tomorrow if I still haven't heard from
him, I'll go to the post office and take some money from his cash, then
mail his wallet to the adress listed on the driver's license.

What would you do or could do in this situation? By the way if anybody knows
Richard L. living on Folsom st in San Francisco, tell him i have his wallet
Take one of his credit cards, and order me one of these. PM me and I'll send you the shipping address. Thanks
