Dead End

I was always taught that walking on someones tomb was highly disrespectful. This was apparently not a British custom. I had heard they recently discovered the body of King Richard III buried under a parking lot in Leicester in Central England. I guess I shouldn't have been that surprised to see others buried under sidewalks. I am fascinated by the importance placed on history evidenced by keeping these markers around despite modern needs and growth. I am sadly getting used to the disposable nature of todays society.
