New idea in mortuary science: Dissolving bodies with lye (Brown, school, rating)

[Steve Hazzard]

CONCORD, N.H. - Since they first walked the planet, humans have either buried or burned their dead. Now a new option is generating interest — dissolving bodies in lye and flushing the brownish, syrupy residue down the drain.

This is very interesting! I would be OK with this process, who cares, you're dead! Your "corpus delicti" is just taking up space in cemeteries and mausoleums, cremated or not! I fail to see the importance of maintaining the human body after life has been extinguished!
