Who will be the scientist who discovers the most efficient way of turning corpses into fertiliser and fuel on an industrial scale?

Each locality will have a burial pit for the processing of dead bodies who will keep a record of the names of the deceased thus processed. These Dead Processing Centres would have cyber cafes for access to an Internet global cyber cemetery.

These would be joyous and sociable places where, as well as cyber cafes, there would be rooms for hire to celebrate the memory of the dead.

It would be extremely useful for researching one's family tree.

Details listed would be:

1. Full name
2. Date of Birth
3. Date of Death
4. Marital Status at time of death
5. Spouse(s)
6. Civil partner(s)
7. Children, both legitimate and illegitimate

I also propose facilities online for visitors to praise, criticise or defend the dead.

Lawyers and historians could be involved so there could be a living to be made out of the dead after crematoria and gravediggers pass into obsolescence.
