sounds like the general feel here is to go to ashes... same plan here as I have never liked the idea of being in the ground pretty much forever. These days they require that you be drained, filled with some sort of stuff, and then the casket has to be put in a cement liner so that the decomposition does not leach into the ground. There is no way to go from "earth to earth" anymore it would seem (at least not without having someone just bury ya in the woods ) so it is "ashes to ashes" for me...
