    Is it just a rumor? Or is it eminent? Since selling of my last PP, I have not been commenting here, but I surely will miss the chat place that was as pleasant as this place was.

    Casket or cremation? I am still trying to decide. Is there an option to bury the ashes and still have the grave? I know AI can tell me. I don’t really trust AI though.

    Once you get through it, it is a piece of cake, no worries about waking up, etc.
    Ok, I decided to search, it’s ok to have the urn buried in a plot, but you will have to go through some legalities.
    I actually got something done while on Priuschat active mode, so that’s a bonus. Decision is made. No waking up underground assured. I know about embalming, but just the idea of laying in a casket year after year bugs me. But I do want the headstone to at least have some evidence I lived. Even if it is just the gardeners who see it after the descendants have forgotten.

    Oh OK. I noticed frequent site not loading recently... Hope that weren't the sign of permanent closure. But I know all good things comes to an end... sigh

    Suggestions:
    • Contact "the powers that be" via Facebook - every time I've found the forum ducked, I post a message to the Facebook user named "PriusChat" and within a day, the problem is resolved. This appears to be a backdoor way to communicate with the 'admin.'
    • PM and share email addresses - I've already proposed exchanging email with one of my regular corespondents. Once I have his, I'll exchange test messages and store them independent of PriusChat. But I am not hard on any one solution. Google took over "groups" and we could create an independent, email "users group." Unlike this forum, there are not subgroups as much as 'threads.'
    I come back to PriusChat to share what I've discovered and discuss current events.

    @Tideland Prius :
    Yeah it's been flaky the last 2 weeks. Danny said he needs someone professional to look into the cause (so I guess it's beyond his level of expertise?)

    More posting and looking, more advertising money for Danny to fix it.

    And the dogma of the church. IIRC, Eastern/Russian Orthodox won't allow it.
