#1 There is nothing remotely "eerie" about this project, any more than visiting a loved one's grave site is "eerie." It's far overdue but is finally getting done. Perhaps relatives and friends of those buried at Arlington will be able to see the grave markers if they are unable to make a visit. There is a worldwide project closely related to this, called FindAGrave which is a public voluntary database of deaths and grave markers worldwide. It is also useful to family & local historians.
Findagrave already has some web pages for Arlington National Cemetery, but only 337, since it's a volunteer effort.
