word - it is far too late. So maybe...I dunno, people should THINK about what they do and the consequences of their actions and how it will affect the people on the planet and their future offspring.

IOW, if a person doesn't want their grave pissed on then maybe they should have led a better life and try to leave a positive impact on the world?

There is a huge difference between being famous and infamous.
