I kinda want to. But I also want cryro-preservation. And maybe to just hang around, ghost like and bug folks. Poltergeist kinda thing.

I have decided.  
I am going to do this and hire someone so that after I am buried they dig up my coffin, arrange it so I am facing the camera holding a sign saying, “Get me out of here” Then they rebury me.

When these threads are resurrected, I wonder what happened to the old posters, some with cool usernames.

Interesting that the site still exists but the cam footage is no longer there.

…and my biology teacher back in the early 80’s correctly taught us that hair and fingernails may appear to continue to grow after death, but it’s due to the shrinkage of the skin and tissue around them.
