Alot has been written about how hard it is to really get rid of your facebook life should you so want to (just google -- lol), but facebook does say that you can do it in one shot, which this fb group explains. Deleting an account is supposed to scrub facebook of all of your posts, comments, tags, your virtual footprints... You can go directly to the link, here.
