Found Camera - stage.com - Help!

[Aquahound]

I sent the housing s/n to ScubaBasics. Maybe we'll have some luck there, because the Aruba school doesn't seem to be responding to anyone. Snail mail is next.

Today, I'll be trying to edit that turtle video down to a size that's managable.

It's not holiday time down there right now, is it? Anyone here live in the area that can tell us?

I'd guess they're not responding either because your e-mail is going into their junk mail box, or they're just deleting it without reading because all the English-language e-mails they get are trying to sell them something. (From my limited experience with the Dutch, their English is generally better than mine.)

Seeing how cheap international telephone calls are these days (not sure about to the Caribbean), If I were you I'd be tempted to just call them. "Hello -- do you speak English?" If they don't, someone there will.

Once you establish contact with someone who cares (and that shouldn't be hard), e-mail from then on.

Working on it. I handed the video to my computer people today. They are editing the turtle video. Hopefully, I'll have it posted in some form today.

I was able to cut out the wasted 15 minutes. Here is the turtle video uploaded to YouTube:

I've read most of the posts but this is getting pretty lengthy. Somebody may have done this already but I googled florida stage.com and the only thing that looked possible from the first couple pages of results was venicestage.com. There are other ...stage.com but they are not from florida. Of course I am assuming that this person is from florida which may not be the case.

Haha good title and description on youtube...

I found a camera and Ikelite waterproof housing washed ashore in Key West, FL. Pictures indicate it floated all the way from Aruba over a period of 6 months. Half way through the journey, this sea turtle came across it and tried to eat it, turning the camera on and recording himself.

Didn't see much of the turtle but it still may cause some publicity, He struggled with it quit a bit; hope he's ok.

Sorry, but you really need to read all of the thread to participate. It's part of a name on Aruba.

Maybe the camera was trying to get home. OK, point taken, my bad. k:
