Cool Re: Graves.

Sooner or later we will run out of space to bury people so something has to be done.

Cremation is all well and good but what about CO2? After all we are carbon bipeds, are we not? Not only does it take a lot of energy (gas) to burn a body there is the question of the coffin. We chop down trees to make a coffin and then either burn it or bury it. Not very environmental friendly is it?

Surely the answer must be burial at sea where the deceased will at least contribute to the marine food chain.

The real problem is that we spend too much time remembering that someone has died and not remembering that they had lived.
