Stratovarius Community

The StratoForum is going to bury a HUGE Time Capsule that will be opened in 2075-----70 years from now. Name 5 things you would contribute.

my MegaDeth T-shirt
An Infinite Visions Videotape
Sugarless gum
A Recent Local Newspaper
A Cordless phone


Tshirt to show a popular band, the videotape because it will be obsolete by then, sugarless gum is an exampl of a relatively recent snack discovery, the newspaper is obvious, a cordless phone will show a popular tech thing!


Actually I thought of humdreds of things, but 5 would save space!

1) an autographed copy of Ayreon's The Human Equation (extended edtion afcource)

2) a picture of myself

3) a mp3-player

4) recent teampicture of Ajax amsterdam

5) a screenshot of this topic

1) by then it will still be my favorit album
2) to show what I looked like
3) for the popular tech thing
4) to show who was champion in 2005 :banana1:
5) to show how we are spending our free time

Don't forget a Pic of George W. Bush----the people who open the capsule have to have something to laugh at/about!


Yep--that was mean---so sue me!

1) Text where I'm trying to prophesy some cases that will happen in future and how world will change. (They will laugh!)

2) Best Disney-stories (Don Rosa's and Carl Barks' stories!) If I have to choose one, I have to choose Rosa's "The Life And Times of Scrooge McDuck" -book.

3) Visions -album

4) A picture of me (maybe THIS )

5) "What is IN now" -list or something like that

i made a time capsule once. i think we put gum in it, but being about six years old we took the gum out later and chewed it.

why do people always want to put gum in time capsules? this has boggled me for years.


i'll think of something relevant to post later. but to me it's like a "five things you'd take to the desert" i just have trouble making decisions...

I got the idea for this topic from a local news item I found very interesting.
50 years ago a group of people in a city in North Alabama decided to bury a trunk full of stuff unique to 1955---newspapers, 78rpm records, books, a few articles of clothing, magazines etc. anyway---a few days ago the children of these people dug that trunk up(It was a secret between these few people&never broken!)and opened it! Other than alittle water leakage into the vault, everything was intact---the papers readable&dry.

It was interesting---these old pieces of literature&remnants from the past!

yeah, time capsules are a cool idea!!



i just meant... why do people always want to put gum in them?

1. A picture of myself

2. Dreamspace-album

3. This book, The Spearwielder's Tales: The Woods Out Back, made by R.A. Salvatore

4. A Cd-player

5. Hmm... A cookie. Yes, a gingerbread cookie. Straight from the year 2005.

1. A piece of paper in which I'll write my view of the modern world; what's going on in the world, what's hot & what's not, who's who etc.

2. The daily newspaper (Helsingin Sanomat / The Helsinki Journal)

3. A box of photos from my everyday life

4. Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11 (for laughs)

5. Episode, Visions, Destiny and Elements pt. 1 & 2 - all in one set

1 - My iPod with 40 GB of music in it.

2 - My PC laptop with even more music, some films and videogames.

3, 4 and 5 : some books, certainly The Lord Of The Rings (1 volume ) and two french ones La Chartreuse de Parme and one by Amélie Nothob, dunno which one though, all of her books are fucking great.

1) a universal history of the world in cd-rom, to show in the future the disasters we (mankind) have made in the past and present, but also the good things we have created.
2) Iron Maiden cds and a t-shirt of Number of the Beast. Best heavy metal band of all times, in all senses, no more to say.
3)Compilation of classic music: Beethoven, Mozart, Bach, Brahms, Rodrigo. Sometimes the man could do things full of beaty and feeling.
4)a photograph of my son with a cd video of some scenes of my life, representing the medium class. Who cares about high class people?
5)Compilation of universal literature.
6)Some photographs of the different kinds of people of the world.

OFF-TOPIC: Spiderman's avatar looks so real it scares the shit outta me! :shud:

LOOOOOOL! A Black Widow is what made the guy Spiderman, if I recall correctly!

yeah.... good avatar.

Where I live we have lots of different spiders, but I can´t recognize them... there are some of them really nice, but only for watching!!

My list:

1. A superness + my Mario and Donkey Kong games
2. Pics of forests, clean lakes and rivers + wild animals. By that time, if world is all polluted and fucked, they'd have an idea of the beauty men destroyed.
3. The diary I wrote when I was 15, so they'd have an idea of how a teenage and friends used to live.
4. All my rock magazines collection
5. Pics of me, my family, my friends and my cats.
