Now, some of you may say "damn it hardcoregirl you damn dirty hippie"...but I think its cool.

Embalming is just silly..and gross.

Screw the mortuary industry!

I still like the idea of getting burned up after whatever usable parts are harvested. With predicted population booms, those 15 x 15 plots will go fast.

Actually was talking to someone about death rituals that included a big bonfire type thing (pyree? Spelling check?) and the ashes going into a stew and such in order to pass along the persons wisdom in life.
