Photos fine from CoolPix after 18 months in ocean!

->> We'll all heard about people being relieved when their CF card survives an accidental trip through the washer in the pocket of a pair of jeans, but here's one that takes the cake. Tourist drops camera off cruise ship, 18 months later a fisherman snags the camera in net, camera is returned to owner, and owner pulls card and finds that the images are still retrievable!
