Are you very concerned what happens to your body after death?
Nope.
My preference is stick me in a giant blender. Liquify me. Spray me over a big patch of California Golden Poppies.
This sounds awesome!
I likevthe idea of planting a tree above me and using me for fertilizer. But on the other hand, cremation is much cheaper so sprinkle my ashes in a forest.

Yes. I want my body donated to the Mayo Clinic to be used for research purposes. It'll at least serve a purpose that way to help advance scientific research. If anything of mine can be donated to others before that, I hope it is.
No. Although I do have plans for it I would like to donate it to science. Otherwise I want to be cremated, just for economic reasons. I still want a cool gravestone though, really old-school.
Absolutely not. Donor and then cremation.
Organ donor, rest goes to University of Manchester medical department.
Cremated. Ashes mixed with tea leaves and served as a piping hot cup of tea to whoever would freak out the most when they're told they just drank a person. Probably a vegetarian.
Nope. It just better not be injected with formaldehyde & alcohol dressed up like a mannequin & place in an over priced jewelry box only to be placed in the earth. My corpse should be recycled into the great compost of million year old carbon & star dust from whenst it came. Organs donated. Remnants scattered on Mesa Verde National Park.
I'd be ok with the Alcohol part...
Spiced Rum would be my preference - but I would also prefer to be alive when they start...
Nope. I would want to be as useful as possible in death (organs donated, fertilize a tree), but other than that it doesn't matter. I think sometimes about making my funeral into an activist party of some sort. It'll have awesome music.
“I would request that my body in death be buried not cremated, so that the energy content contained within it gets returned to the earth, so that flora and fauna can dine upon it, just as I have dined upon flora and fauna during my lifetime”
