[Vision2020] Something DEFINITELY different

[Paul Rumelhart]

I also recommend her book "Spook", which is on the subject of life after death.  
Very entertaining and informative.

  I read last year a very interesting, well-written book on the science and 
culture, if you can call it that, of dead bodies and their handling, whether for 
research or simple burial.  It's called "Stiff," which is more irreverent than 
the book itself, and it's by Mary Roach.  I read it, oddly enough, shortly after 
my dad died, and I found it surprisingly comforting.  It's one of the most 
fascinating books I've read, and I think many of you would find it so as well.

And referring to Tom's original post, about what to call the box containing his 
and Rodna's cremains, I might suggest this:  Store the box in the laundry room, 
next to the box of Dryer Lint, and label it Die-er Lint.  Just don't mix the two 
. . .
