I never get the fun jobs!

But then, I'm not a Canadian scientist.

Here's the headline plus lede, for those of you who aren't inclined to click on the above link (which now works) to the UK Telegraph story:

Zombies would most likely wipe out humanity if they really existed, claim scientists

Civilisation would most likely be finished in the event of a zombie outbreak, claim Canadian mathematicians who have calculated the possible devastation caused by an attack by the fictional monsters.

Put this in the "if my aunt had wheels, she'd be a tea tray" file....

Whatsername again....? said...

Aaah, zombies. It makes me glad to be married to a gamer that has killed a lot of those scary feckers.

I'm in the cricket bat, high powers automatic assault rifle, flame thrower school of thought maybe. And if that doesn't work, a cricket bat and an old set of 1970's vinyl might do.

Wonder if tax dollars paid for that research.

The link would not work, neither would editing it to just www.telegraph.co.uk, but getting a link from google did. Strange, huh?

Zombies just want a hug, according to a t-shirt :-)

Okay, Canadian Person Doug, the link is fixed...were you one of the scientists involved?

So far, I think I want to have Whatsername watch my back when zombies strike....

So, you have an If My Aunt Had Wheels, etc file, too? Small world.
Does your aunt have wheels?
Judging from the picture accompanying the article, zombie chicks are rather well stacked. What a waste.
Must be a result of the zombie infection.
