Benjamin: Exactly how do you mean?
Mr. McGuire: There's a great future in plastics. Think about it. Will you think about it?

I will think about it.
Actually, funny story...about 3 weeks ago, there was a fire in my area.
More than one person, including me, started wandering around looking for the source of the smoke we could smell. We heard the firetrucks, but due to the wind or the shape of the land, or buildings in the way, we couldn't determine exactly where they were coming from. The air was smoky/foggy, and smelled strange.
Finally, this guy on a scooter came by, dropping a friend off at her house. He said, "The fires on the other side of Lamar, on Oltorf, it's at that place called Enchanted Forest. It's a bunch of plastic that caught fire.
As he motor scootered off, I called after him "I've got ONE word for you".
He called back "Plastics!"
