New way for audiophiles to die!

This is no joke. I was reading the obituaries online as I usually do. There was an advertisement for cremation with a picture of a vinyl record. That caught my attention. The ad stated that cremated remains can be turned into many different objects including vinyl records! Who woulda thunk. I don't have the link but it was mcall.com Click on obits or google it. This opens new possibilities. What genre of music do you want to come back as? Joe

There was a movie called Soylent Green (1973) starring Charleton Heston, based on  SciFi writer Harry Harrison's book Make Room Make Room (1966).

At the end (SPOILER ALERT) they find out that the protein meals being fed to the masses, were actually recycled people. Great movie but my wife and I always look at sushi or protein bars and mutter "Soylent Green"!

Not a nice subject to bring up, but it would be more efficient to bury people in circular casts vertically. You would only need a post hole digger and much less space needed, if you wanted to remain intact rather "blowin' in the wind"...

Man, Soylent Green!

I believe that was Edward G. Robinson’s final film - no pun intended. 

However, the recycling into vinyl thing does present a problem for some of us who’ve grown up with the religious sentiment - and I paraphrase - that we are in effect “dust, and to dust we shall return.”

LP’s and dust?  Vinyl’s kryptonite!

I would think Queen's 'Another One Bites The Dust' would be appropriate....
