    CRITICIZING OTHERS IS A DANGEROUS THING, NOT SO MUCH BECAUSE YOU MAY MAKE MISTAKES ABOUT THEM, BUT BECAUSE YOU MAY BE REVEALING THE TRUTH ABOUT YOURSELF.

    They do space burials nowadays,or turn your corpse into a diamond



    Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
    The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

    Most of my immediate relatives ... including my late first wife ... opted for cremation in recent years. But, to be honest, I cannot quite make up MY mind ... all the more so since this practice is extremely uncommon in the Phils, and I am now married to a Filipina.

    At the age of sixty-five, I'm becoming ever-more conscious of my [fairly] "imminent" mortality - yet the thought of what will happen to me after my death scares me, as I do not like the very notion of either of the customary methods used for the body's disposal.

    Cryogenics? (as mentioned by Pumpkins) ... now there's an !

    I rather like that idea but the resulting diamonds seem a bit large for industrial diamonds (lifegem.com)

    But then I don't know a great deal about the advances in recent years.

    Personally I want to be buried, preferably in the Phils beside the rest of our family, I have been there on All Saints day, if I am buried in the Phils I will never be alone

    Ultimately our sun will cremate us all, I can wait a few billion years before my elementary particles end up in a white dwarf or get blown away in the final breaths of the suns solar wind in its red giant stage.

    Sadly our sun is not big enough to become a supernova which could blast all of our constituent parts back out into the universe for a further cycle of creation.

    Wait a good bit longer and the 'Big Rip' will get even the cold black remains of burnt out stars like ours

    If you mean cryogenics, then the statement in your second post would defeat the objective of the exercise, I reckon....
