Guest's song is nice - did a dead person write it??? I'm wondering whose wishes we are trying to honor.

I don't mean to be callous or flippant about death, but is the undersea site really a grave? If remains can be recovered and given a proper burial, is that immoral?

Someone mentioned the World Trade Center. Every effort was made to recover remains. Once it became evident that no further remains could be recovered, THEN the site became a final resting place.
