The plan is to be cremated, that's the most pragmatic thing I can actually do. What I'd like is to be eaten. Not some slow decomposition by bacteria, actually devoured by some big carnivore. Once I'm done with the matter I've been borrowing, I think its a beautiful idea to put it to good use by giving some other magnificent creature life. Circle of life and all that. I thought of a body farm, but the whole maggot thing is rather distasteful to me. Oh sure, part of me would end up as poop, but that's life. Of course this probably won't actually happen, unless I'm sure its coming and put myself out in the wild somewhere with bears or cougars around. So, cremation it is. More than anything I find the idea of keeping something that really isn't yours in a box, under ground, full of chemicals to slowly rot to be a rather bizzarre idea.
