I sometimes wonder now many people would go in for a Paris Catacombs type burial situation if that was an option in their home town. No marked grave, no memorial, just having all the flesh chemically stripped from their skeleton, which is then disassembled and incorporated into an anonymous wall of bones in some kind of fucked up underground labyrinth where people can walk through and look at the bones. I have to imagine there's a non-trivial market for that.

Thank you, Wikipedia; I was not feeling morbid enough today.
