Buried Treasure

Today I came across the name of Dr. Thornwell Jacobs, considered to be the father of the modern time capsule. The article referenced his Crypt of Civilization, a encyclopedic snapshot of the world of 1938 containing encyclopedias, histories, scientific works, special editions of newspapers, travelogues, travel talks, cinema reels, models, phonograph records, and similar materials sealed in time-resistant packaging. Sounds fascinating, but the article didn't mention where the Crypt was located, which can be a problem for citizens of the future. The internet to the rescue: It's in the basement of Phoebe Hearst Memorial Hall in Georgia's Oglethorpe University. If you're around Georgia in May 8113, check it out when it's opened.
