What can be used by science to them, the rest I would prefer to be cremated. Not that I really care, I just really hate the thought of being buried alive..

Oh, and the Sedlec Ossuary in Kutna Hora is Catholic, not Jewish. :)

I would just like to add a story about 'Bob in a bag'. Bob was a skydiver who jumped in the early days with some of the senior members of my old club. He was also one of the earliest skydivers to have the last wish granted of having his ashes spread in freefall. Anyway, Pink Terry and The Komander put Bob's ashes in a plastic bag and prepared for the jump, with plenty of people joking about 'Bob in a bag'. Pink Terry and The Komander linked up as they got up to speed, and as Pink Terry pulled Bob-in-a-bag out of his jumpsuit the bag ripped and Pink Terry wound up inhaling a horrible stream of human ash. They tell the story a lot better, but I hope that I told it well enough to get at least a few laughs.

Oh, and if die a sudden death, I hope someone arranges it to look like a suicide caused by the unjust cancellation of Firefly. First Science fiction, otherwise, science.

Donate my organs. If my organs are not usable, donate my body for the development of medicine or to train new doctors on it.

Thanks, Troy for the link.

And thanks, Dallas. I never click on unexplained links. Trojans, rick rolled, etc. I passed right over this until you added that info.

Cremated, encased in a nice ol cement block, and dropped into the sea to help coral reefs out.

Organs for harvest, what remains, science for study. Leave nothing to be dealt with by family.

I have signed a donation card.  I'll be cremated and buried with my son.

A funeral pyre would be cool personally, but its just a thought.

Same as practically everyone else here. I am an organ donor and I will be donating my body to science.
