Donating my Body to Science.

As I really hate funerals and the way funeral parlours tend to exploit those left(guilt, pride,ego etc) I decided some time ago to donate my body to Melbourne Uni Antomy Dept.
They will keep my body for student teaching etc for three years, after which they have it cremated.This is contingent on my dying within 60 kms and not being squished, or my cadaver otherwise undesirable.
I am wondering if this action is held in ill repute by any religious group or cult.

If squished, or whatever, I will opt for a carboard box cremation, in keeping with my environmental position...........what do others think?
