This is not a fairy tale. But the real events that happened long ago. A number of stories about the messages being inserted into the bottle and washed away into the ocean. A way of sending a message that still remembered in the history of mankind.
Message in a bottle (message in the bottle) is a form of communication "ancient". You
do this by placing a letter or a short message in a watertight tube
(can drums, glass bottles, plastic bottles or containers specifically)
and washed away into the sea or ocean. Usually
the message is not addressed to a specific address, because it is that
it can reach any region depends on ocean currents. Therefore,
the use of a message in a bottle is usually done in an emergency such
as a message for help that made the ship sank, the ship is damaged, or
the people who were stranded on a desert island.
However,
due to the ineffectiveness and impressed "chance", message in a bottle
was finally not included in the formal messaging system. But there are still many people who take it so far as part of the entertainment, fun and games. Even the term message in a bottle also undergone a change in meaning. It's
no longer really the message is stored in a bottle, but it contains a
phrase (meaning) of a message conveyed through the media, specifically
targeting misguided.
Bottle is a container that is right for ocean conditions. The
nature of the materials used in the glass, causing the bottle is not
exposed to water erosion, damage from salt water and very difficult to
disentangle. In addition, the bottle will be sealed watertight and filled with air in it that allows floating for a long time.
Because
of its floats, the bottle will follow the direction of the wind and
ocean currents, to stop when terhempar to the coast and inland.
In
history, the first record of the use of a message in a bottle has been
done in the year 310 BC by the ancient Greek philosopher Theophrastus,
as part of an experiment to show that the ocean currents of the
Mediterranean Sea is a flow to the Atlantic Ocean.
Then
other notes also recorded that Christopher Columbus (1451-1506) the
explorer and discoverer of the Americas (New World) message in a bottle
to use as a fleet ship hit a sea storm. He
put his brief account of the journey and a special message for the
Queen of Spain into a drum, and then threw it into the sea. He hopes that the message can be accepted, even though he did not survive the storm.
Then in the 16th century, the British Navy uses a message in a bottle to give information to fellow British fleet. The message contains information critical intelligence about enemy positions and state waters. But because fishermen often find a bottle and opened the message, the message was leaked intelligence.
Queen
Elizabeth I are outraged that intelligence is often opened and
eventually became public, then set specific rules that the message in
the bottle belongs to the British Navy and the British chaplain should
not be opened at random, except by special official royal opening
message "Uncorker of Ocean Bottles". Violation of this order is punishable by death.
The use of a message in a bottle in the modern record by "boat people" in May 2005. Some
88 boat migrants was rescued off the coast of Costa Rica after
authorities found a message in a bottle nearby from a fishing boat
docked. Message in a bottle turns fastened by a convoy of refugee boats to a fishing vessel passing near them. It contained a short message asking them SOS rescued.

Months later, an old fisherman in Sicily (Italy) to find the message stuck in the net. He then opened it and read the letter inside. The fishermen bring home the message in a bottle and jokingly showed the letter to his daughter, Paolina. Intrigued
fad and curiosity, and feel that this is a game that's fun, Paolina

In
the months that followed his letter reciprocated, Ake Viking and
Paolina then engaged in an intense correspondence without ever meeting. Chat correspondence leading romantic things and their relationship warmed.
Two years later, Ake Viking took time off to visit Paolina in Sicily. Mate was adrift and Ake Viking promised to return again. In the fall of 1958, Ake Viking back to Sicily and apply Paolina at their second meeting. The two lovebirds were eventually married in the same year. Wah!
