...just received the issue with "10 Ideas for The Next 10 Years." How about someone figuring out the process to reverse the process where we make petroleum into plastic, to make all this throwaway plastic back into petroleum?

Combine the grosses for The Blind Side, Bullock's summer comedy hit The Proposal ($164 million) and the throwaway All About Steve ($33.8 million), and the 45-year-old star has earned nearly $300 million at the domestic box office so far this year. She's a bigger draw, you could say, than any two 22-year-old cuties, male or female...
