Dear Ann Landers, was surprised at your response to the man in Oklahoma who wanted to be buried in his 1937 Dodge. You said, "If that's what you want, I hope you get it." You must be just as nutty as he is. Don't you know we are running out of ground? There isn't enough room for people, much less a 1937 Dodge. Get with it, Granny. -A Realist
Dear R.,
I checked with Rosehill Cemetery in Chicago (founded 150 years ago) and they have enough ground to last for at least another 100 years. (Of course, they've been burying people out there, not cars.) Atlanta, however, is getting into high-rise mausoleums, which is an-other way to go, if you'll pardon the expression. The ultimate solution could be cremation, although some religious groups are opposed to it. Time alters customs, however, and it may well alter this one.
