I'm not saying they burn it. I'm saying that there are regulations and protocol for dealing with all kinds of waste.

And not all fracing waste gets disposed of properly. Some of it gets dumped.

Sometimes we just change the name of a process. There is not any difference in burning human remains in a medical waste incinerator and cremation.

I think there is--not to the remains, but to those who handle human remains. We're not talking about a tumor cut out, or a limb that could not be saved, but the remains of a human being (or someone, given the chance, would have been walking and among us.

When we revere the mortal remains of other humans, we also show respect for life. When we cast them aside as so much waste, we'll be burying the dead in mass graves or landfills with the trash.

As we respect those who have passed, we respect their descendents, the living.

It is a slippery slope.
