That is pretty sick. I'd heard that there was a problem with Japanese organ donation... which I don't quite understand. Aren't all Japanese required to be cremated? (Although even with an open casket funeral, they can arrange it so you can't tell any organs were removed). Also, I don't think it's a part of Buddhist or Shinto religion that the body should be intact like Orthodox Judaism.

I'm an organ donor. Why the heck do I care what happens to my body when I die, as long as it's respectful? I certainly would rather a human get my organs than a worm.

Hah, the organs go to those with the $$$, just like everything else .
