I've been talking about cemeteries a lot already in this blog, which I suppose is indicative of the way my mind works. I find a thread and I follow it, sometimes much too far. But I discovered this article from last year which gives a great summary of the history of cemeteries as well as answering some of my own questions about how technology might be changing our burial customs. The interviewee also echoes many of my own thoughts and feelings about cemeteries, so I think it's worth a read. Check out:
