Jacques Du Pasquier points to the following in disgust:

"According to French law, a corpse must be buried, cremated or donated
to science."
In Louisiana, there are cemetaries and cemetaries filled with tiny
*above-ground* crypts of dead people- due to the Mississsippi rising,
it's necessary to bury the dead that way, otherwise Grandpa might
float away. (see "City of the Dead" near New Orleans for an example).
Louisiana, is organized politically and legally via the French parish
system. Can one use something legal from there?
