What would you put in a 2007 time vault?

I'd guess I'd plant a 2007 Plymouth and hope for better luck in 2057

Plymouth was shut down over 5 years ago.

I think Mr Belvedere died too so that can't happen either.

Maybe a bottle of Oklahoma wine.  The beer is nice and all but who's going to drink that after 50 years?  Wine, however, ages well.....so I'd put something a few of the folks could crack open, have a drink and remember the even and the folks who put it there.

Now we know that cars are not the best thing to put in a vault for 50 years...but what are good things to put in a vault today that would make Tulsans excited about digging it up in 2057.

A Driller ballcap, a Quik Trip taquito, some Bama pies...a DVD of the "Channels", a Mayfest poster, some Weber's root beer...

How about dropping the Belvedere back in another capsule and letting it sit for another 50 years?  Then the next contest can be to guess what the pile of rust is.

What about Chuck Norris?  He would eat through the rust.

KOTV, shame on you.  Very poor example.

They are advertising a new time capsule to be buried in october.

[sauerkraut]

I'd like to see another car be put in a time capsule, any car would be fine. Tulsa should start a tridition of doing that, planting a car in a time capsule every 50 years. The '57 Plymouth was around $2,500 and that was a ton of money back then, Why not plant something like an $16,000 car today- it'll still be a gem when it comes out in 50 years brand new. The city spends thousands of dollars on tourism ads why not plant a car and attract world wide attention. The new time capsule would have to be  built as if it was going to be sitting on the bottom of the Arkansas River for 50 years totaly water proof, maybe even do maintence and check the capsule every 5-or 10 years just to be sure it's not leaking. They should of checked this time capsule every so many years just to see if anything breached it, if water was found they could of sliped in a hose and pumped it out thru a small hole and then seal up the hole. It would of saved a high value car.

Like I said, drop a case of silicone implants in there and there wouldn't be a problem.

I second the Rosie O comment but, I'd shoot her out into space.[]

A few CD's, a few DVDs, a couple of movie posters, loads of photographs-and I'd return to Tulsa just to do that, too.

[custosnox]

Laptops, big screen TV's, Ipods, and all kinds of other fun stuff?  If they dig it up in 50 years and only find an empty vault with a side tunnel dug in, don't come looking for me. hehe

Put in a bunch of those USPS "forever stamps"

Since stamp prices rise faster than inflation, those would be better than gold.
