Title: Zombie attack would be the death of us: study
Post by: daigong on August 20, 2009, 09:20:16 AM: (http://i26.tinypic.com/2qktq0y.jpg)

Board up the windows of that abandoned hospital if you must, but if the dead ever come back to life as zombies and begin infecting the population, a group of Canadian researchers don't hold out much hope for our survival.

A group of University of Ottawa mathematics students and their professor came to their dire conclusion after developing a simple model similar to one researchers might use to track the spread of a pandemic.

The result is food for thought for those who worry the living dead might eat their brains.

"A zombie outbreak is likely to lead to the collapse of civilization, unless it is dealt with quickly," they write. (http://www.cbc.ca/technology/story/2009/08/18/zombie-attack-infection-model-research.html)

Now that's what I'm talking about! Hard earned PhDs are made of deeezz!

This was the "apocalypse" I was hoping for. It's no fun if we we all just drowned or got scorched.

NO PROBLEM, as you know, zombies can't die because they are already dead.

I'd go for shooting them in the knees then a right hook. Or shooting at the oil barrel!

j/k, I'd probably be one of the first ones to get eaten, but they'd be eating me for so long my friends would get away cuz I'm so BIG :rofl: :rofl:
