....and we stick them in the recycle bin....takes a bit of manipulation  (epecially if rigor has set in !!)....but it works.

Yet to invert the Paddington syndrome, where people disappear completely in major incidents because it's the perfect way of breaking with one's past, there's also the occasional incident of "One Corpse Too Many": the finest way of hiding a body is amongst other bodies...

When I took analytic chemistry, my instructor had a bottle of what he called "Jack's Magic Solution" which we used for cleaning the deposited crap out of glass vacuum filters.  I believe it was a mixture of sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and potassium permanganate.  (I don't know in what molar ratios, sorry murderers)  He implied that if one were to dump a body into a plastic barrel and fill it with the stuff, the entire corpse would be able to wash down the gutter in liquid form.


I asked forensic archaeologist Corinne Duhig (http://www.thenakedscientists.com/html/shows/2002.04.07.htm) this. She said that gallstones are a big give away and have helped to incriminate people who have done just this because being predominantly fat (cholesterol and phospholipid) they don't react terribly well with the acids. In the case she mentioned theyy were the only residue of the deceased and turned up in the garden where the acid bath had been emptied...

Guess you should follow up with some benzene or other strong nonpolar solvent.  ;)

The best place to hide a body is in the belly of a shark.

I heard that a strong Alkali solution breaks down a human body much quicker than acids. It can also dispose of those little annoyences such as teeth and bones. Im not such how it would do against the Gall Stones though.

why dont you just blow it up into little pieces or something or take a boat out into the ocean and put a weight on it and let it sink to the ocean bed.

..wait until the corpse has gone all stiff, stand upright in a corner...... makes a good hat stand/coat holder.........

If you're handy with electronics...stick a bulb in mouth to make a pleasant lamp....at Christmas you can avail the corpse of it's other orifices to make a pleasing Christmas Tree.

Yeah I'd say a wallaby by the feet, too small for a roo but guess it could have been a baby roo.

Maybe pay the guy down the local crematorium a few bux to turn a blind eye?
