This seems "logical" to me. Of COURSE there's a special torpedo room for space burials. It prob- ably is right next to or in the chapel. Humans (and presumably other races) insist on keeping funeral customs, so it may be cheaper to build a special torpedo room for space burials to help keep life in space just that much more liveable (see the novelization of STTMP for a discussion about that issue -- TMP was trash but the novel is interesting). -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "...(he himself being Brandon Allbery one universe's prime decvax!cwruecmp!{atvax!ncoast|ncoast}!{bsafw|stuart} example of utter, BITNET: R0176%CSUOHIO (?if administration permits?) rambunctious free MCI Mail: 161-7070 will!)"
