People really need to ponder all the possibilities before signing.
I was listening to an audio book on my commute. It began in an area of the desert where the gov't (or someone) conducted experiments by leaving bodies out in the desert sun. Kinda grossed me out from the start and I turned it off. Grisly.

Who cares if your body is skinless? You are still basically all in one piece. You aren't going to know anyway.

It is kind of gross, but there are actual scientific organizations that study what happens to dead bodies under different conditions. The information helps forensic experts determine time of death.

P.S. What's the title of the book? There is a series based on the UT center, written by Dr. William Bass, who started it.
