Hmm... yeah, after careful analysis, your idea IS in fact better than being hit by fuel-air bombs. Good call.

Well from what I know from films - the ONLY reliable zombie info source I feel... The Zombie virus is transmitted usually by biting, thus indicating a bodily fluid based transfer.

With that in mind I think batting anf pickaxing the undead into deadness will create a spray of blood snot and brains - some of which will be atomised and breathed in, entering you blood stream via the mucus membranes, and eyes as well.

So that really throws up some problems - if you have a biological protection suit and you fell like diving in and smashing brain stems then thats all good... Personally I'd like an aerial strike, I'd hotwire me an A-10 and just run that gun dry in a load of kick ass low passes.. Yhea that's what I'll do, I'll make sure I have a ripped shirt and a woman waiting for me back at base

Funny,

My wife and I discuss all the time about how we could better fortify our 2nd story apartment from such an outbreak.

We both actually own copies of
Zombie Survival Handbook

We figure if we live in a city of 400,000 people, and have about a month of MREs and approximately ~100,000 rounds of ammunition we should be alright. Given our accuracy and being able to hit them with 1 bullet in the head.

According to 28 days later, that's about how long it takes for zombies to starve to death, and their numbers should decrease significantly after.

Read that one...By far my favorite Zombie novel is Day by Day Armageddon.

It is written in the style of a journal. But a very quick read very difficult to put down!

I thought the survival guide was kind of silly (i know its listed as comedy).

What is VX?

VX is the deadliest nerve agent ever created. Known by its U.S. Army code name, it is a clear, colorless liquid with the consistency of motor oil. A fraction of a drop of VX, absorbed through the skin, can fatally disrupt the nervous system. Although a cocktail of drugs can serve as an antidote, VX acts so quickly that victims would have to be injected with the antidote almost immediately to have a chance at survival. VX is the only significant nerve agent created since World War II.

What VX is
    •VX is a human-made chemical warfare agent classified as a nerve agent. Nerve agents are the most toxic and rapidly acting of the known chemical warfare agents. They are similar to pesticides (insect killers) called organophosphates in terms of how they work and what kinds of harmful effects they cause. However, nerve agents are much more potent than organophosphate pesticides.

    •VX was originally developed in the United Kingdom in the early 1950s.

    •VX is odorless and tasteless.

    •VX is an oily liquid that is amber in color and very slow to evaporate. It evaporates about as slowly as motor oil.

Why does the US still have thousands of tons of VX stockpiled ?

ZOMBIES !!

Now everything makes sense !!
