    Optimistic to think it’s fabricated with nanotech instead of just pureé’d people and green dye.

    No point in wasting the good stuff on the poors.

      The problem with using pureé’d people is the transportation cost. C’mon now, think of the shareholders.

        The lifepod just stores the bodies at subzero temperatures until a disposal truck comes to collect the bio waste. It all goes to the same place anyway…

        Unless it’s one of the new ones, those just blend the body in-house and supplement the incoming lines.

          Spendthrift! Who’s going to pay for all those trucks and blenders? We’ll just jettison the bodies out of the lifepods and let the Desert Crabs eat them. We’ll call it part of our “green” initiative. Of course we’ll still keep the body transportation charges, and tack on a convenience fee. THINK OF THE SHAREHOLDERS!!!
