Hmm, strikes me the proper way to remember Pat is if no one claims his ashes

Yes, how much would that cost?

Nothing, if done properly. The proper way to honor Pat: *steal* his
ashes. Mix some of them in with some paint. Load the mix into
paintballs. Sneak into a launch facility and nail the upper stage of
some booster preparing to launch a comsat into GEO. Prefarably a
comstat scheduled to broadcast bad made-for-SyFy channel movies
featuring scantily clad talentless actresses.

It's what he would've wanted.
