Yes, the comment is odd taken out of context. Don't know exactly what I was
thinking. Oh, yes. I just remembered....I was considering the comparison
between cremation and barbeque. Since the archaeological record becomes
silent when evidence of what or who was being fried, one never knows who is
being sizzled on the stick. Apologies to the Hindu culture yet customs
prevail even though the PC changes. Besides, today it is much more
economical to cremate rather than deal with morticians.
