If I was convinced you really wanted 'Mike stew', I'd do my best. But I'd hate it.

I also lean towards spreading ashes around a tree. I spread my father's ashes, and it felt right. If I could, I'd prefer most to have my entire body buried under a newly planted white pine, but I don't think there are many places where that's legal. I wonder if one can do a pine box filled with earth? Burying that under a new tree would good for me. I suppose this capsule is the same. I'd do it.

I've made my intentions pretty clear that I want to be cremated, however if the tree idea were possible, I'd find it a suitable use for my body.

Mike stew? That's one hell of a final prank to pull on your loved ones.

psst demure I sure do!!

Cremated first. I dislike graveyards, they are not comfy. I always enjoyed swimming and water, but after reading The Swarm, I got a little scared of open waters.

The idea with the tree is tempting. I would love to be spread on a forest floor so the mushrooms can take me up and spread me through the whole forest.

Yes, this sound good. Writing it into my will right away.

I think being taxidermied would be hilarious.

My mother was buried in her clown costume. Several clowns attended as well, and someone played a funeral march on a kazoo. I kept seeing people I didn't know trying very, very hard to be solemn, and then catching themselves smirking and looking horrified. She would have enjoyed that just as much as I did.

I want to be sent to space. It's prohibitively expensive though.

Hey thanks everybody, sorry I missed you all. After about half an hour I decided just to sleep; fortunately I found myself dreaming of better days. In other news, I've decided to hibernate until college.

E: I wrote this poem too

  Up among the rooftops
      my sorrows
      melt away

  Pulled to the earth
      like falling stars
      the prey of gravity

  A shadow flickers
      and is gone
      perished into mist

  Here among the rooftops
      by a soft breeze
      kissed

You still haven't told us what happened. :)

Technically, everyone is buried in space.

Future Sound of London - In Solitude We Are Least Alone

Colorado. The people are generally kind, fit, and welcoming. Denver is big enough to feel urban, but 60 minutes away from wilderness that could kill you. The weather is a crazy mix - we have everything BUT humidity (which has become almost a prerequisite if I were to ever move). The landscapes are varied: deserts and dunes? got em. Mountains? check. Rivers and Lakes? you betcha. Rolling planes? yes indeed. The only thing Colorado really suffers from is lack of beaches. The Denver metro area suffers from some of the ugliest home architecture I've ever seen - almost to a tragic level.

The case of the man receiving the detonator from the FBI is pretty straight forward, there was certainly intent there. What is the "detonator" equivalent for a voreaphiliac?

Even receiving a detonator isn't straightforward, when sometimes the bombing is the FBI's idea.

This article and the website it links to make GMOs seem terrible and dangerous. The opposite is in fact true.

It's unfortunate that Whole Foods is painting GMOs as something to be avoided, but then I've always hated them so I guess I don't really care.

Whole foods is a bully. They're a very powerful company with substantial buying power and they flex their muscle often.

Its a bit cultish, like TED. These days when you're at their stores you're likely to be asked to give to their "whole world foundation", buy the founders "book" or indoctrinate yourself in to their folds in any number of ways.

Ill admit that we predominantly shop there, but we get in and out as quickly as we can. If I could find one spot to buy all the items we like other than WF, I would.

I don't think WF cares about GMO, I think they see an opportunity and are seizing it. If they can make GMO free items seem like a luxory, they can command a heftier margin. It's about money and controing your supply chain. They have all the leverage when they control the message and the can steer demand.

Maybe with the API? :)

The site they link to warns of the dangers but never says what they are. Then, if you dial in to a PDF buried on the site it finally stated this:

Peer-reviewed studies have found harmful effects on the health of laboratory and livestock animals fed GMOs. Effects include toxic and allergenic effects and altered nutritional value. u Most animal feeding studies on GMOs have only been short-term or medium-term in length. What is needed are long-term and multi-generational studies on GMOs to see if the worrying changes commonly reported in short- and medium-term studies develop into serious disease. Such studies are not required by government regulators. u Industry and regulators dismiss findings of harm in animal feeding trials on GMOs by claiming they are “not biologically significant” or “not biologically relevant” – scientifically meaningless terms that have not been properly defined. u No GM nutritionally enhanced (biofortified) foods are available on the market. In contrast, conventional plant breeding has successfully and safely produced many biofortified foods. u The most-hyped GM nutritionally enhanced food, Golden Rice, aimed at combating vitamin A deficiency, has wasted millions in development funds – yet has not been proven safe to eat and is still not ready for the market. Meanwhile, proven and inexpensive solutions to vitamin A deficiency are available and only need proper funding to be more widely applied. u Conventional plant breeding has successfully and safely produced many biofortified foods.

We want to get it out, but honestly it's gonna be several months before we start working on it..

Half of Steam Greenlight games seem to be horror. I have never played a horror title and I think they look totally boring, I just don't get it.

WF is also expensive as hell, and the one where I'm from is constantly in the news for negative PR stuff that isn't even related to food. (I remember a thing a few months (years?) back where all pedicab drivers in town boycotted WF after they claimed a pedicab wasn't a bike, couldn't be where it was, and made a huge hassle for some poor guy trying to eat lunch.)

If I could find one spot to buy all the items we like other than WF, I would.

Right. There is no scientific evidence that GMOs are harmful or dangerous. They're just the future, and some people have a problem with that. The bottom line, luckily, is GMOs aren't going anywhere in the places they're needed most -- Green Revolution third-world countries, etc.
