message-in-a-bottle plot thickens

i sent the revelation of my bottle being found to curtis ebbesmeyer, king of beachcombers/tide guy and got this response back.

Dear b1:

This is scientifically important drift!!

Thanks greatly for writing to me. It's importance drives me to pester you with a question. Can you estimate about where you threw the bottle overboard? Upper, middle, lower Baja?

I publish a newsletter about all things that float and I'd be happy to send a copy along if you will send along your postal address.

I would like to write up your bottle for the Beachcombers' Alert newsletter. Could you tell me a little more about your trip and why you decided to throw it overboard?

Sincerely,

Curt Ebbesmeyer
