Hello

Thanks for the many diverse and interesting responses.

However I am, as I said, interested in the methods and results of 
burning in UK in 2001. In other words I am interested in the fuel 
required and, for example, whether the bodies were reduced to a charred 
or calcined state.

On another email group I have been advised to contact the British 
authority DEFRA. I have now done this.

Thanks.

Richard
