Just. wow. So bad people are disinterring ancestors and burying them in "safe" areas.

I don’t see the relation between the economy in NJ and some people in Detroit that are afraid to visit a cemetery; hopefully this fad won’t catch on here.

The point being. Detroit has sunk so far, people are disinterring their ancestors. The economy may not be 3% unemployment, but, perhaps the economy here is not THAT bad.
