Well, not having sampled shark urine myself, I will have to defer to your expertise in this matter. Of course, said expertise comes with a remarkable discovery based on the physics and biology involved (in order to be capable of sampling said urine): it is a scientific fact that in order to be that low and have the appropriate access to shark urine, CU_Amiga must in fact be a primitive crustacean, or something similar.
Well, they do say that prawns are the c0ckroaches of the sea...

Hum,
Interesting…

And since pearls dissolve in vinegar,
then perhaps that’s why we find them in oysters….(rather than in Carcharhinus)

@ Blobzie

Indeed, if it wasn't for vinegar dissolving these pearls, I am sure the poor sharks would be harvested for their bladders so that the pearls could be extracted from within.

Another interesting fact about vinegar is that it can be used to treat athletes foot..... Not sure how effective it is though.

Ammonium thiosulphate.

More usefulness of vinegar (well, the acetic acid anyway): is used with potassium bromide as a starter in the developer tank of X-ray processing units.
