They'll never let THESE into Arlington Ntl Cemetery

glass headstones are the postmodernist's answer to tombstones

I can't decide if I like them, or if they just look like Award plaques....

Interesting...

I think the greenish glass ones look like award plaques, but I think I like the plain frosted glass ones.

Those are beautiful!

Do they last as long though, I wonder? Less likely to crack, but more likely to shatter I'd think. Hmmm...

they're suppose to be much better -- plus, no lichens or moss can grow on it!

Maybe I'm more "old fashioned" or something but I like the more traditional (okay, so maybe more traditional is a better choice of words) headstones. The white ones are okay but the green I don't like at all. I kind of like seeing headstones wear. For me that's part of the story behind the person buried.

But I *do* like your user pic - Snapealicious!

They're not terrible but I personally wouldn't want one. If every tombstone in the cemetery were those it might look cool but it would look strange if they were intermixed with the regular ones.
