I've made mention here before about finding newspapers and dried-up apple cores left over from some workman in the double wall cavity of the California Governors' Mansion. That they survived intact is not suprising as it is a fairly dry environment. What was suprising was finding newspaper from late 1930s Germany still being readable after being buried underground for 45 years. They had been used to insulate a buried concrete pipe-chase outside the battery's barracks. It all got dug up during the major remodeling that went on in the 1980s. Of course there are also the sealed-off and flooded underground facilities that continue to exist under most WWII German military bases.

Include some roll on the floor comedies like the 3 Stooges, W.C. Fields, Marx Bros. etc. cause they'll need 'em. We've already lost most of our sense of humor and in 100 years it'll be a suppressed memory like Mr. Spock showing emotion.:p

I read the other day the people who have that car they unearthed last year are actually going to redo it. Not restore to drive but to look at. lol
