Switzerland Approves Assisted ‘Suicide Capsule.’ What kind of morbid people think up this stuff? On the other hand, perhaps they should sell these to U.S. Prisons to use for capital punishment. It might eliminate the usual argument that executing some poor murderous bastard is too painful.

"There is no panic, no choking," says the inventor. I wonder how he knows that. Do they have a survey of former customers? Oh wait, the former customers are all dead. Well, do they have a recording device inside the capsule that would record screams if the customers were unhappy with the process? or people shouting, "Please! please! give me some fucking air to breathe!"
I wonder what the charge to be offed is?
There's probably a charge pad inside the capsule. With my luck, I'd get in there and it would say "Card declined."
How are you going to make your final payment to the credit card company?
Hmm, that might be why the card would be declined. They might be smart enough to know dead people aren't good credit risks.
You can just leave your cards to me.
I will make sure they are well taken care of. *evil chortle*
You would not be getting nearly the windfall that you imagine.
