New idea in mortuary science: Dissolving bodies with lye
Thu, May 8, 2008 - 4:35 PMOk, what gets me here is the *opposition* to the idea . . .
Why would *anyone* object to disposing of your remains in the most environmentally friendly way?
Burying requires $$ and land space and equipment to seal off your decomposing body from the naturally filtering rain water that courses through the ground; if the equipment fails, you spread your dna, diseases, and microbes through the ground . . .
Burning requires you to purchase one last bit of carbon credit to pay for the fuel and the carbon your body puts into the atmosphere.
Whereas flushing the residue down the drain and into the sewage system seems like a marvelously wonderful, reincarnative way to go: the water and all those nutrients get spread around for all the nearby living things to incorporate into their bodies . . .
what is McCain's, Obama's and Clinton's view on this wonderful innovation?

Golly, I thought that was an old idea. Wasn't it discovered by SERIAL KILLERS?
