WTF? Anyone that has really read anything by Sloww on these boards realizes that he has a soft spot in his heart for the Native American tribes that used to live here.

He generally has sympathy for different cultures even though every once in a while he goes all "USA!". It's not entirely mutually exclusive, you know.

Thank you, Imran. Anyone who wants to be here, I want them here. I still want them documented; but if they want to be here, lending their fervor and areas of expertise to making this country better, welcome.

By that definition nobody is dead.

Energy never dies and everything and everyone is energy in one form or another.

No, but the information that makes up who you are is erased like a reformatted hard drive. Your energy, depending on how your remains are treated, either gets transformed into energy for the critters that eat you or goes up in smoke. You don't get to keep it. If you died in an outer space accident, aside from the energy that would bleed off into space, the chemical energy contained in your body would very likely remain locked up until you either burnt up in re-entry or evaporated away in the heat death of the universe.
