March is Red gL Cross™ Month They say that it is getting getting harder and harder to write satire or humor. That's because real events occurring in today's world are far more amusing than anything anything which could be cooked up in the mind of the humorist or the satirist. Take, for example, last week's news about burial in outer space. I must admit that. I have been rather naive about the subject of exploring outer space. I always assumed the final frontier would be used by scientists for laboratories, factories, observatories, and communications. Never, did I imagine, that it would become the site of a celestial cemetery. Nevertheless, Nevertheless, a Florida company has received U.S. government government clearance to launch a spacecraft which will contain the ashes of approximately 10,000. The deceased will be parked in an orbit where they will remain for approximately 63 million years, give or take a few millennia. That first rocket -- containing the remains of loved ones in gold or platinum capsules with names engraved on the outside -- will be blasting blasting off in 1986 or '87. Incidentally, the cost of sending the ashes of a loved one into orbit is just over $5,000 Canadian. Canadian. As I said at the start of this column, it's pretty hard to imagine anything more bizarre than the true story I have just described. Of course, headline writers had a field day. For example, they referred referred to the deceased as "ashtronauts". But there's a more serious side to this absurd absurd little scheme. I find it disappointing to discover that instead of using outer space. for idealistic, humanitarian humanitarian objectives we are turning it into a goldmine for cemetery plot salesmen. Now that cemetery orbits are a distinct possibility, I wager that it won't be too long before before you'll be able to buy retirement lots on the moon. And quite possibly neon signs will vie with constellations for our attention in the evening sky. I suppose that we should expect to see the commercialization of the heavens just as we have seen the commercialization commercialization ofthe earth. But I must admit that I had expected better.
