CORPUS DELINDA EST

December 18, 2006

Joel at Death and Taxes has a shattering discussion of alternatives in handling the asset we all leave behind at death:

-freeze-drying ("the decedent's body is flash-frozen to minus 18 C..., then dipped in liquid nitrogen at a temperature of minus 196 C.... The body, which is then brittle, is subjected to sound waves that reduce it to powder. The body can then be cremated or buried in a coffin made of cornstarch, which, when placed in the ground, will degrade in about a year").

Brr...
