Why are they moving to 'dispose' of the bodies now? I thought that there was a major plan to try to identify the bodies so that the families who have had members killed by Katrina (directly or indirectly) could have the closure that they need.

However, to do that will take a VERY long time (and probably not all will be identified). FEMA wants to have this company earn over $100mil/day to dispose of non indentified bodies w/out even TRYING to identify them? Or are they going to gather the bodies, warehouse them, then sit on their heels and wait for ID before 'disposal' at which point, I would think, the issue of method of disposal would be that of any surviving family members.

Oh, and FEMA's middle name isn't "wait" it is "point at anyone/anything else", "cause delay" is merely its nickname.e
