Has Anyone Seen My Time Capsule?

The trouble with burying something in the back yard for the benefit of future generations is that sometime between now and the future, people forget about it. I very vaguely remember burying my own time capsule when I was a kid. I don't remember where I lived, how old I was, what was put in the capsule (probably an old Mason jar) or who else was involved. But it illustrates my point perfectly. Apparently, there are people who worry about such things. They not only keep track of time capsules, they are the guardians of the Crypt of Civilization, which is not due to be opened until 8113. Unless you are a true believer of Star Trek, pretty much everybody thinks the human race will be gone by then. Might anyone know where one of the top 10 missing time capsules might be located?

Are you wearing your purple ribbon?

No. I know both Kaitlyn's mom and the babysitter, so I just try to stay neutral. It's a sad story on both sides.
