Progress We Have Made in 100 Years

Oldest Known Message-In-A-Bottle Found | IFLScience



A postcard placed in a bottle and thrown into the North Sea more than a century ago has been found and returned to the scientific institution responsible for its distribution. Rather than a love letter or an SOS to the world, it is part of one of the longest running scientific experiments in the world.

photo credit: The record breaking bottle before it was smashed. Marianne Winkler


From 1904-1906 George Parker Bidder of the Marine Biological Association of the U.K. (MBA) placed 1020 postcards addressed to the institution in bottles and had them released into the North Sea. The cards offered a reward of a shilling to anyone who found one and posted it back with information.



Marianne Winkler found the bottle in April on a beach on Amrum, an island off Germany's North Sea coast. Winkler told local website Amrun News, “It’s always a joy finding a message-in-a-bottle on the beach. Where does it come from, who wrote it and how long has it been travelling with the wind, waves and currents?

A Homage to Leonard Smalls, Lone Biker of the Apocalypse

Leonard Smalls Quotes:
- Raising Arizona (1987)
Leonard Smalls: You want to find an outlaw, hire an outlaw. You want to find a Dunkin' Donuts, call a cop. 

Leonard Smalls: Name's Smalls. Leonard Smalls. My friends call me Lenny... only I ain't got no friends. 

Nathan Arizona Sr.: You want that $25,000 reward, you go ahead and claim it. What's there to talk about? 
Leonard Smalls: Price. A fair price. That's not what you say it is, and it's not what I say it is... It's what the market will bear. Now there's people - and I know 'em - who'll pay a lot more than $25,000 for a healthy baby. Why, I myself fetched $30,000 on the black market. And that was in 1954 dollars. 

Nathan Arizona Sr.: I got the cops and the Federal BI out there lookin' for my boy... 

Leonard Smalls: Cops won't find your boy. A cop couldn't find his butt if it had a bell on it. 

Nathan Arizona Sr.: If you're looking for furniture or a shitbox, out there is the sales floor. 
Leonard Smalls: I'm not a customer. I'm a manhunter. But I do hunt babies on occasion. I heard tell you got one you can't put your hand to. 
Nathan Arizona Sr.: How do you know about that? 

Leonard Smalls: That's my job. I'm a tracker. Some say part hound dog. 

Smalls is a finder of men. He rides alone and lives in the underworld. He represents evil.
