Detroit Facing Corpse Surplus
Corpses are piling up in the Wayne County Morgue in Detroit because families and loved ones can't afford to bury or cremate the bodies. What do you think?
Jun Weneau,
Systems Analyst
"At least they have a roof over their heads and no cares in the world. There are a lot Michiganders who would gladly trade places with those corpses."
June Reno,
Elevator Operator
"Ford's doing okay. Maybe they need some crash-test dummies?"
Yan Juno,
Rack Carrier
"Being dead, though, probably is the best way to experience Detroit."
