The closest that I've ever came the the smell of death was working in a cattle slaughter house that slaughtered around 1,500 a day. A very wierd smell but not that over powered IMO

You know, that's a great idea! I have a couple of vultures in my family who I don't want to get anything of mine either, so I have a Will. That's basically the same. Is it notarized?
