Reply to comment by Psych_Crisis in TIL the SL-1 was the only reactor accident in U.S. history which resulted in immediate fatalities, killing 3 military operators in 1961, pinning one of them to the ceiling. by rigorousthinker

Its millitary? Oh damm we dont come near that shit. But yeah i suspect that in america graves are cheaper and are protected longer because you have more space and less people died (who wanted to be burried) for each square meter.

We would probaly half a big part of proper land meant for housing wasted if we would protect graves for ever. 50 years seems short but its often when the family itself stops caring. Which for a expensive grave is probaly pretty fast.

(When was the last time your grandfather went to the graveyard and visit the grave of their grandfathers?

We have a lot of weird things that we make sacred in my country. It's not all inherently bad, and every country should have it's on flavor, but yeah, we like graves.

Fast food. Baseball. Graves.
