Hello Rod,
          I would like to meet you sometime.  I like some of your
philosophy.  I've been following your and others comments on Apollo since it
started.  I don't say much, but I know how to listen.
        You add a lot to the board.  Keep up the good work!

                                        Mike McNeill

As goofy as this society is - they don't even want people to be buried
standing up - thus saving a multitude of space. Guess they feel they don't
want their loved ones standing up for an eternity! Ha. -=*) ANN (*=-

To define the difference - man is the only animal that has cause to 'say
he's sorry!' -=*) ANN (*=-

Again, a good job on your animal posts and again, so true. Mankind is also
one who will suck on a teat with no nurishment in it! *Heh -=*) ANN (*=-

It would save space being buried standing up and those who were could be
considered as 'stand up people', I suppose.  But why even waste that much
space?

In Tibet when one dies the body breakers are sent for and they do just what
the name implies, feeding the meat to the big birds in the area.  The birds
in turn leave droppings rich in nutrients and plants grow so much better.

The people eat those plants and stay healthy until it is their turn to
become bird feed.  

It's a vicious circle, eh?  :>
