Attack by zombies would lead to the collapse of civilisation, says BBC!

Professor Robert Smith? (the question mark is part of his surname and not a typographical mistake) and colleagues wrote: "We model a zombie attack using biological assumptions based on popular zombie movies.

 

"We introduce a basic model for zombie infection and illustrate the outcome with numerical solutions."

 

And:

 

My understanding of zombie biology is that if you manage to decapitate a zombie then it's dead forever.

-Professor Neil Ferguson

 

And:

 

Even so, their analysis revealed that a strategy of capturing or curing the zombies would only put off the inevitable.

 

In their scientific paper, the authors conclude that humanity's only hope is to "hit them [the undead] hard and hit them often".

 

They added: "It's imperative that zombies are dealt with quickly or else... we are all in a great deal of trouble."

 

Additionally:

 

On his university web page, the mathematics professor at Ottawa University says the question mark distinguishes him from Robert Smith, lead singer of rock band The Cure.

 

From the Beh Beh Keh.

 

This is excellent. I cannot wait for the zombie epidemic. I have prayed for this for YEARS.

Well, my oh my, if the BBC says it, it must be true! But for real...I've read Zombie Survival Guide, haven't read World War Z but I want to.

 

I'd only welcome the coming zombie apocalypse if it lead certain things.

 

#1 - If the world turned all Junkyard-y like in Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga (or Avatar Tuner, same game, different place in the world). Everyone is infected with this computer virus and turn into monsters when they need to, or when the Solar Noise gets out of hand. They also must eat who they've killed to survive or they starve to death.

 

#2 - Eats China.

 

#3 - Leads to "The More You Know..." PSA show proper ways to combat and dispose of dead zombies. Maybe even bring back the GI Joes (or Action Man, for you Brits) and at the end of the show of zombie killing, they do their "Knowing is half the battle..." messages.

Well it's not really. Plus it's in one of the trailers. Plus that's a poor name for it. It doesn't spoil anything, but go and watch the film right now just in case I blurt any more out ;)

 

L4D 2 is bringing in melee weapons. Personally, if the zombies are that close I can't see a frying pan being that much use and a chainsaw is just plain silly - it'll run out of juice!

 

Okay, maybe I'm being a baby. Shitty stick it is then for the zombie beating thereof.

Yeah, I don't get that with L4D2...melee weapons, pfft. The game looks like it takes place in the South, specifically Louisiana. Being the young, Southern gentleman that I am...trust me when I say there's MORE than enough firearms to adequately defend the populace against a zombie invasion, and the training to actually do it. We loves us some guns. Here in Florida where I live, has the highest concentration of military veterans in the Western Hemisphere and a bijillion Air Force, Navy, Marine, and Coast Guard bases. Only a dumb ass would be running around with a baseball bat or golf club...but there are plenty of those everywhere, I suppose.
