I love time capsules -- I made a bunch of them as a kid, and there may be one or two still in my parents' backyard (complete with a cassette tape recording of all my friends and a 1978 issue of TIME magazine). One of my favorite time capsule stories was the one about an Oklahoma community digging up one that included a 1957 Plymouth. Everyone expected the car to be in pristine condition... but when the reached it, they found that it had completely rusted out!
