What is made out of tin? Tin cans? No, they are made out of aluminum. That joke gets me every time, and it got me again today. This set my mind to thinking. Tin isn't used for anything. They don't make cans out of tin or planes out of tin anymore like the "Tin Goose". Tin is a forgotten metal. But what if Tin could be rediscovered like Marky Mark was rediscovered, but instead of using it in movies with George Clooney it was used for making stuff like tin cups, or "real tin" soda cans or even tin shoes? Heck they could even make little tin George Clooney statues like those Statues of Libertys that they sell in NY. Tourist eat that stuff up. Think about out, for I see a future, a future of tin.
