I've recovered 6 or 7 corpses from the lava in Sol A (so far none of them
mine :-)). In each case, I simply locate with my song, get a levitation and
then just bounce out over the lava and back to safety before I have the
chance to float down. In every case, I've been able to /corpse the body
back (through the Z axis bug?) without any problems... Even the ones where
people panic and tried to swim for it (my wife tried to climb the
waterfall).
