Fake corks?

[Count Duckula]

Somewhere between the two topics of this thread lies a solution to one of them.  I can't quite put my finger on it.  Something about the dilemma of a burgeoning population of six billion...and plastic corks sealing holes...Hrm.  It's in there somewhere, I'm sure.

And will hopefully lay undiscovered. :P

Speaking of wine, a pass-through of Wal-Mart's wine section showed about 30% cork, for all who care. Did you know wine also comes in flip-top tabs and screw-on lids? Or maybe it's because it's Wal-Mart, and I'm 37 days away from entering the nearest VABC.
