Six month rotating idea time capsule

A small ferris wheel-like object with a slot in the top to place index cards and a slot in the bottom that dispenses index cards.

The wheel has 365 slots and rotates .986301... degrees once a day leaving only the top and bottom slots open (the other slots being hidden behind a cover). Idea goes in the top, six months later, idea comes back out the bottom. Cheney could have used one circa 2003.
