If You Were to Bury Something Underground...

Postby Recyclersteve » Thu Nov 06, 2014 1:54 am

If you buried something underground and had to have it last for years within spoiling or being damaged, what would you bury? I don't really have any special ideas, so I'm curious what you guys think. Comments?

My house. Yes, an underground house. At least, partially or parts of it.

PS: This is my preferred version. The cleanout plug that screws in and out is easy to seal (think a liberal coating of the threads with petroleum jelly) and opens easily with a wrench.
