And I don't want my family feeling obligated to mourn forever over my ashes, either.

Point taken. Maybe I should have worded that differently, as reading back on my post it does seem a little harsh.
Makes no difference anyway. The near future generations will be cremated by default due to lack of resources. I agree with you on the fact that it is a waste of money and property to bury the dead, but somehow it just seems more respectful. The more I think about it the less strongly I feel that way tho.....The way of the future.
