How long would it take to compost six million bodies... hypothetically, speaking, of course? Asking for a friend.

Actually a cool idea if done right. But I stashes a few bodies in shallow graves in the woods behind his house and suddenly the police get involved. I need a new approach.

Instead of settling for being interred in a box or becoming charred dust in the wind, Washingtonians can now opt to be "terramated." That is, they can pack their corpses into sci-fi-like vessels filled to the brim with organic materials, and through a sped-up decomposition process become a truckload of fresh, tillable compost.
I think this is a bad idea. What sorts of diseases might this transfer? It's not like it's much dirt this would produce anyway.

There is no law that i'm aware of anywhere that requires you to bury in a coffin or cremate someone. You can do whatever you what with the dead body. Nobody knows this and goes through the bullshit and shell out thousands for something that takes a shovel

The whole thing costs $4,950
That's some bullshit. Probably also the only reason this became legal. The funeral industry lobby does NOT want a sensible cost of death.

"Human composting"
You mean burying people and letting them decompose? What a concept. They should give someone a Noble (sp on purpose) prize for discovering that.

I want every fiber of my being to return to the Earth as soon as I die. That way I'll be able to participate faster in culling, I mean, equilibrium.
