No it's not - it's an environmentally friendly use of land, unlike cremation.

WHAT?
"On a typical 10-acre conventional cemetery there is enough casket wood to build 40+ houses, 900+ tons of casket steel, 20,000 tons of vault concrete, and enough formalin to fill a small pool."

That shit is fully pointless for any other purpose than providing families with a block of stone to go and remember family members by.

Formaldehyde is used to embalm the bodies before burial as well as "chemicals and additives like glutaraldehyde, phenol, methanol, antibiotics, dyes, anti-edemic chemicals and disinfectant chemicals." So traditional burial is still pretty nasty chemically speaking. Plus you'll also have the threat of disease being spread.

Buried in a cardboard coffin as the respectable way but you could just bury me as is and I'd be happy enough. Eco friendly and turning back into mush in no time.

Just been talking to a good mate about this...my final will and testament will include the following.

1/4 of my ashes in a firework, let off on a clear night over the cottages into the sea at Hope Gap, Seaford.

1/4 of my ashes in a firework, let off on a clear night off the end of the pier into the sea, here in Huntington Beach, O. C., California.

1/2 of my ashes incased in glass and shaped into a life size replica of my manhood for the good lady widow to use at her discretion. (Still contemplating the addition of some kind of siren or flashing lights inside, once a certain speed and/or time limit has passed).

This plan only took 4 bottles of Opus and some fine Korean BBQ to achieve.

It's dark, gloomy, and Monday morning and I have just voted in a thread whether or not I want to be cremated or buried. That has cheered me up no end!

If it's at all possible, I'd like to be fed to some pigs. I think its only right since I've loved eating them for so many years. It would be my way of giving them great thanks for keeping me in bacon sandwiches.

Clients of mine acting as executors to a dead couples estate were telling me the other day of the trouble they have had getting the pair buried together in same grave in family burial plot due to local council rules. Anyhow upshot was that they had to mix the two urns contents together.

They said funny thing was that one urn contained white fine ash and the other a rough dark grey matter. Weird?

I'd like to be experimented upon and brought back into a sort of existence as a vengeful automatonic lollypop lady. Or, to go a bit mad in my old age and become a quite skillful strangler, only for my hands to be donated to medicine and have them transplanted onto a perfectly innocent and handless man, a loner, preferably, who is possessed by my evil spirit, perhaps joins NSC in a murderous Meade's Ball babbling way, and then goes on the rampage with my deadly paws.
A Psychiatrist would have a field day with you.

Donated to science, my organs can go to those that need them, the rest of me I'm donating research. Seeing as I'm an atheist and pursuing a scientific uni / career path, I feel that it's the fitting thing to do.
