Memorial / Firefighters Timecapsule

A Commemorative Firehall Memorial has been completed for our station and a TIMECAPSULE has been placed in two of the pillars. The capsule will measure 8"dia x 36"H.
What do you think should be in the timecapsule ?

Neat idea!
How about a copy of the Firefighters Prayer, a St. Florian medal, letters from school aged children with their opinion of how the world will be in a century?

I happen to be working in an elementary school right now and will ask the principal if they can do this with the children great idea...
as long as we don't have a repeat of 'Knowing'
The Firefighters prayer will be engraved on the front brass plaque but is also included with other photos, recordings etc within a book in the capsule (see my profile page for book)
