Really. We don't need to know this. Let him RIP.

I agree. As a kid, I was absolutely fascinated with looking a Egyptian mummies in the museum. But after a while, I realized they were real people. Today when I see them I want to say let these people rest in peace. Yes, it's ok to "study" their corpses for a while to gain understanding of the past, but they should not be display items like a painting. They were human beings, not artifacts.

I think it's time to give this "Ice Man" a decent burial that any human deserves.

Just my quirky feelings, I guess.
