"Standing on Clearwater's Pier 60, a little boy put a note in a bottle: "To whoever finds this, please write me a letter and let me know." Nineteen years went by. Roger, we got your note."

what would be better is to write a letter and stick it into an uncommon bottle. Then make it as if it is from the future before the appcolyps (sp check that) and freak everyone out
