I am keeping skin off my toes, a bloodstained plaster and several teeth of mine

Question:future?
Would you say this is vile or not? ;-)
Would you appreciate it if you had similar items from your great granddad in your family history collection?

i would like all that!

good luck with your collection!

That is disgusting.

ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww vile

and as you're probably not an actual scientist, useless

Thats gross and unnecessary.

Nail clippings and a bogey on a kleenex.

Erm...a few words on paper, a hand or footprint, photos....that would do. Are you hoping they clone you and thats why you want to leave your DNA?

thats nicee
rottenn toenails
hehe yellow teeth
dont forget to brush them

Marvellous idea, though I would certainly look into some preservation methods for your body parts.

Yeah definitely vile. I think I would want photos...maybe a lock of hair...teeth, blood, toenails???? I think you want to clone yourself in the future because you think it might be more available then.

In no way, no how would I appreicate the things that you mentioned. Not at all.

Perhaps you could do a lock of hair (from your head of course - no toes or anything else vile like that).

If I were keeping something for my descendants, I would give them something that was very dear to me (like a book I am filling in regarding family history or photos where they can see my teeth so they don't have to hold them in their hand and think what the heck was wrong with me). I would also like to pass on my wedding dress and my great grandmother's wedding dress.

Under no circumstances would I leave pieces of my body.

Eww.
I'm sure they'll be very interested in your gross stuff.

That's sick.

If someone left that to me I think I'd burn it.

I'm going to leave as much detail as I can about my family history once I've amassed it all and probably a few precious family peices like photos and jewellery.

Please don't leave your family peices of your flesh......

Historians, family or not, will have everything they could possibly hope for in the form of dental/medical/work records and all the stuff that the government and financial institutions hold on you, and I certainly would NOT want that sort of rubbish left by MY forbears. It should all have been either burned or buried with them upon their death.
