Saw this on Boingboing and I love the idea. A japanese company are selling (I think) hardbacks hollowed out as planters. Now you don't have to throw away those pesky old-fashioned books that are cluttering up your life so much. Just take the lead of the japanese, hollow out the book, and soon enough you could be growing strawberries in a copy of Moby Dick
