>After how many years should it be opened?
>Where do you put it meanwhile?
>How do you make sure it's not forgotten after you're gone?
>Do you keep a record of the contents, or do you want it to be a surprise?
>What, in a word, is the point of the exercise?
>
>Any suggestions, anecdotes, etc., would be very helpful.
