On body disposal: What you need is a nice quiet spot in the desert to bury the body and a good size bag of quicklime. I also second swamps and bogs. Fire's tricky. You'd have to get some good heat going to make be sure there's no evidence. We're talking cremation type heat, which is above 1600 deg. F. You're average house fire burns at 1200, so you can't just light a place on fire and walk off. Got to put some effort in to it.

Given how much mockage he got from Faye for showing emotional vulnerability, it was probably a smart move on his part to pretend like it didn't bother him.
It surprised Jeph that people like Faye despite her increasingly nasty behavior and I think maybe before he knew that, he felt free to have her get meaner because he didn't really think people liked her anyway. So I wonder if he wrote this little snippet of Faye being nice, in response to the poll information. She has been increasingly unlikable in my opinion lately and this sudden attack of conscience feels forced.
It's just a thought anyway.

Theodore Sturgeon covered this in "The Sex Opposite" (available in his collection of stories "E. Pluribus Unicorn"). Slice the body (actually, two bodies in the story) from neck to crotch, pack with powdered aluminium and powdered iron oxide, touch it off with a coil of magnesium wire.
"Made a great big messy thermite bomb out of them"

I suspect jeph did it because he wanted to.
