Macarbe question: Has there ever been an on-line funeral?
Follow-up question, somewhat related: Has anyone been to a funeral of another DUer?

1. No to both questions.
Curious about why you are asking?

2. Couple of reasons:
1: I had the question of an on-line funeral pop into my head for a short-story idea. I guess I'll go ahead with it.

2: So many old DUers are MIA, that I thought maybe I'd missed some things.

3: Hey! You're not thinking!?

3. True that many old DUers are MIA.
Some got fed up, I think. I am always thinking, LOL.

4. Given the current population and age demographics of DU ...
... it is just a matter of time. I'm just steeling myself up.

5. I am being Ms. Sweetness and Light.
Stay out of GD Crunchy, is my advice.

7. GD Crunchy? The 2004 4-rum?
Never been. Never going.

6. Didn't Timothy Leary have one?
I seem to remember Leary having some sort of online event following his death.
