Under current laws where I live I think cremation is the smart choice. As it is now, a burial requires the casket be placed inside of a sealed concrete vault.

I'd really like to see bodies buried either wrapped in a cotton sheet or placed in a simple pine box, without embalming.

This is a subject to which I have been giving a great deal of thought since my husband died. Check out Caitlin Doughty's fascinating book, "From Here to Eternity" and google her on the internet at The Order of the Good Death. She is a certified mortician, mordantly funny, absolutely brilliant.

What was it that the Klingons told Picard to do with the bodies of fellow Klingons? They are just empty husks...do with them what you wish?

Burial but under a tree with no coffin
Give back to the earth
Or just go the Tibetan way and bound your body close together and let nature pick at your dead body

Hey, wait a minute! I haven' t agreed to this death thing yet!
