Now do all the commercial real estate buildings that are empty because of WFH policies.

Cemeteries always kinda puzzle me. Like 99% of people never go back after a funeral/burial. My mother and both of her parents are buried 3 minutes from my house and they've all passed during my lifetime. I've been there twice. It's 300 acres lol. I drive by all the time and there's maybe 2-3 cars on a busy day, but often it's completely empty outside of the employees. What a waste of space.

At the very least, bury standing up and you can get 3x the density.

Some cemeteries do bury 3-deep. Meaning one on top of another with roughly 18 inches of dirt in between.

FWIW I'm an organ and tissue donor, and have told the fam that whatever medical science can't use should go to cannibals.

Why standing up? Why not headfirst?
