    I rarely deal in the macabre but I got into this discussion last night about this subject and it seems interesting to me to see what other people would choose.

    What happened to the ashes? You really DID throw them in the earth? Seems like... uh, I don't know... you could have just thrown them away ANYWHERE... :(

    I can't vote in this. I just can't.

    Buried, but after I die they can have any of the good organs that someone can use.

    Donated to Science

    There's a great book I read last year about this subject - STIFF by Mary Roach. It talks about the various uses of bodies donated to science from being crash test dummies to decomposition studies to being in a body worlds type exibit. It's a very good read.

    I'm not exactly sure what I want. I know that I do not want to be embalmed. That **** is just weird. I kind of dig the whole green funeral thing but I might just want to get cremated.

    What I've told people is when I die to treat my body like a hot Honda and take as many parts as you can.
