@divegeester saidI will not be cremated and I have seen the plot of Javanese soil where my remains will be buried at some point in, presumably, the next 10-20 years. Even if a wealthy Star Trek fan offered to cremate my body and launch it into solar orbit, I don't think my family would be interested.

@divegeester saidunless my groggy reading is impaired this morning, solar orbit is the same as heliocentric orbit, but with fewer syllables
