I Got A Question

[zhelynd]

but, ok, lets begin with new york city, i know the city has 14 million people
so after 60 years, the city has to have 10 million - 13 million graves available to accomodate so many dead people, where the hell are they gonna get so many rooms to make cemeteries???

same situation apply to all over the world, 60 yrs later we need at least 5 billion grave yards, where the hell are we gonna get the land? and, further down the road, will earth over run by cemeteries after 200 years? are we gonna bury people on the moon or mars? thats really heavan you know?

Cremation will 'help' to ease the problem.

You're right, that was stupid! We burn 'em! :lol:

Cemetaries and golf courses are an extreme waste of land.

We have massive overpopulation, underemployment, and centralized overindustrialization for it to exist.

Graves are for the symbol minded.

The dead person wouldn't care what happens to there bodies because.....well...
they can't :blink:

So a hole in one could lead to a hole in one?

YES&#33;

Now there is a creative solution-fix world hunger using dead "United Staters"&#33;*

Endless possibilities for those inclined to semiotics, huh? :P


*To whom it may concern: Having used the term "United Stater(s)" twice now, I must say, I don&#39;t like it at all.

I am reverting, therefore, to my favored usage of the barbaric AMERICAN.

Sorry.

Do you remember this story, the furnace broke :o


Authorities are searching Tri-State Crematory in Noble, Georgia, after its operator allegedly failed to carry out the contracted cremation of bodies, dumping them in woods and vaults at the crematory grounds, and on land behind his home.

I read somewhere that there&#39;s a place where they are burying the dead VERTICAL lately, in order to save space.
I think it as Singapore or sth.

[superdude]

Well, when a grave is very old, people forget about it and the people in the cementeries just recicle the land,. by that time, the bodies sometimes are already broken up in nutrients for the ground. and they might as well bury someone else.

[<TROUBLE^MAKER>]

I don&#39;t know why they put formaldehyde in the body and seal it in a coffin that is sealed with a cement crypt it seams like those are an obstacle to a speedy decay. With out that stuff the body would decay more rapidly, isn&#39;t that what want ?

[Evil Gemini]

Also, the family of the dead person can pay for how long that spot is just for them.

So, after that time has expired, they re burry someone there and it starts again.

(im not sure if its the same for everywhere)

For those in the UK...

It works out cheaper sending the remains to the USA than using the British Location..

Nice idea.....for those that can afford it.
