SCI. LOL. Another Bush corruption. I haven't checked the stock lately. Selling death is rather difficult. Or used to be -- a year ago in the 'boom times.' Just like Time Warner door-to-door and telemarketing. The sales training is top-notch for 'use' in other endeavors. If one can sell death to the living at tickets of $7,000-upwards funerals pre-paid 'on time (credit),' one can sell anything. The ground ('space'); the 'memorials' (tombstones) ... the 'immortality features' of 'death care,' carry the thinnest profit margins, as do the services of the Funeral Directors. The real money is in pre-paid 'immortalization' of an extravagant funeral 'ceremony.' Three 'levels of love:' 1. Economy 2. Value 3. Premium Then, as to 'custom' arrangements, the sky's the limit. -g- bia
