I've kind of long held the idea that people with their massive monuments to themselves are their last narcisstic act when they die...... This is worse. I guess it's fun to find out about people when you go to the graveyard by reading what's on their gravestones, but that - is just distasteful I think.
LMAO! I've mentioned a tad about my involvement in the industry that takes care of things after one assumes room temperature. A VERY high percentage of people have made no pre-arrangements for themselves, for whatever reasons, and left the details to their survivors. This is what can happen if you do not make your own final arrangements and leave the details to others!
For me, lifegems.com is the way to go. They extract all useable carbon from creamation and lab-create a diamond.
Oh I saw those! That's pretty cool. Actually though - what I think is the coolest - is that if you're cremated, they can put you in a mix to make a pseudo coral reef that can be sunk anywhere in the sea. Sea life attatches itself to it and all of the sudden you have a mini sea community around you - it's cool and it's good for the environment!
The link is no longer valid.
