A jar cast into the ocean fifty years ago by a boy during family trip to Seaside Heights, N.J. -- and likely buried in the sand for decades – has surfaced after Superstorm Sandy dug up large portions of the state’s coastline.
In 1963, Dennis Komsa cast the glass jar carrying a note, a 1958 nickel and an envelope with his Paterson, N.J., return address into the ocean.
“To whom it may concern, Please fill out the following questions and mail. This is a scientific experiment by Dennis Komsa, age 12,” the note said, according to the Asbury Park Press.
