that is unless you dont tell the government you're dead. in which case, worms can eat you all you want.

for those not familiar with modern funerary practices in america, you are no longer put in a box in the ground, free to return to the earth. instead you are put in a concrete vault where your casket and remains are sealed for eternity. these vaults are designed so that your body can not be eaten by worms or the like.

eventually i suppose the vault will break down through the inevitable process of nature, but this takes much longer than the 1 month it takes for a body to decompose to bone naturally. (give or take a couple weeks depending on temperature/humidity.)
