What would you ask the Dead?

Will I get a raise? Is my boyfriend cheating on me? Should I take that job in Scranton? I am amused that those psychics who claim to talk to the dead on a regular basis, seem to restrict their inquiries to such mundane questions. It seems to me that “mediums,” (such as John Edward) who supposedly possess the extraordinary skills as being able to converse with people beyond the grave, are doing humanity a great disservice by not asking more significant questions. I’ve been thinking about this and have come up with a few questions I would (if given the opportunity) ask a dead person.

What’s the temperature there? What is the ground like? Is it like soft clouds or green meadows? Is the weather always the same? Does it sometimes rain? Are there regions with different climates in heaven? Is it all Caribbean beaches or is there a sub-Saharan and a polar heaven? Are there hurricanes or blizzards? Can you travel in heaven? How far can you go? Is heaven infinite or does it have borders? If you have gone to the infinite, what is infinity like? How did you get there and how long does it take? Did you fly to infinity or is there some kind of public transportation?

Are there atoms or is there magnetism in heaven? Is there any matter at all? Is there gravity in heaven, do balls fall down? How many dimensions are there in heaven? Left/right, forward/backward, up/down; what else is there? Imagine the advancements that could occur in physics and other sciences if we were to get real answers to questions like this
