Thanks for the post Mike. In my last post I mentioned STEI as a stock I was looking at. But after coming across this article:

Cynthia Fox, "Society: A Do-It-Yourself Funeral" Clyde Spivey, like more and more people, chose to bypass the American way of death., Life, 03-01-1999, pp 72+.

--I have the "death care" industry off my list. The article mentions avg funeral cost in England is $1650, France is $2200. Eight G's for the average funeral in US!

Copying the whole article is an obvious copyright violation, but you can find the article in elibrary.com. There is a 30 day free trial offer. I subscribe and it's a great service. IMO it is must reading...quite an eye opener.
