We've all said it or at least heard it.."If I had only saved those when I was a kid, they are worth a fortune now!" So what are we ignoring today that will be tomorrows hot collectibles? any ideas?
Where did you hear this? Is plastic really on the way out? Could you please explain? I havent heard this.TreasureTales said:With petroleum products on their way out, I'd guess plastic stuff..

OK, I respect your opinion. Plastic is cheap. I dont know what they will find to replace it. But maybe someday. I thought you heard or read something. I know they are making plastic that breaks down and is biodegradable in landfills, and of course recycling.TreasureTales said:bigcypresshunter said:Where did you hear this?

Plastic is made from petroleum byproducts, right? So if petroleum is no longer favorable in the radical environmental mindset that this world is falling into, would it not be reasonable to ASSUME plastic products will be on their way out
I thought we were giving our opinions here, so my original statement was an OPINION. Geez, do I have to put a disclaimer on my posts now?

Here is a pic of what I call biodegradable plastic. It was a plastic garbage bag that is now deteriorating.TreasureTales said:[Biodegradable plastic? Now THAT's news to me. We recycle here, but I haven't seen the biodegradeable plastics yet, at least not that I'm aware of.
