   My wife's
home town is Corona, California, its claim to fame is that it has
 LOST the last three time capsules it buried someplace. 
Does that mean that they don't remember where they buried, or that they
remember but the capsules are no longer present? 
Full story at, snip below.

THE NINE MOST WANTED TIME CAPSULES

3. Corona, California, Time Capsules. The City of Corona seems to have
misplaced a series of 17 time capsules dating back to the 1930s. Efforts to
recover the capsules in 1986 were in vain. "We just tore up a lot of
concrete around the civic center, "said the chairman of the town's
centennial committee. A Los Angeles Times reporter has called Corona "the
individual record holder in the fumbled time capsule category."
