me get over it? Ah Don't even get me started, plus I'm not lowering to your level of petty insults. I wasn't insulting your post, I was saying it is a load of crap. No scientific basis.

But it is nice to know who to stay away from tho, so TY (Last post I'll make on any of your trends)

Sorry, I seem to have missed the part of the Ten E-Commandments where it says: "everything Serra Heto, the Unknown, yet quite Dedicated, Warrior for the Rightful Placement of Internet Forum Topics, thinks is silly, unserious, or impossible (quite possibly due to limitations of the mind), should go to the Almighty Crazy Forum, home of all topics that do not fit into the world order (which must be assumed to be true, because Heto Himself said it)."

Get over it. Nobody has yet died from a thread "misplacement", rightful or not.

The research center is in Pittsburgh. The first to break the story was an Australian News service. The only 2 other sources to pick it up is the Free Internet Press which copied the original, and Fox News, which has an article of the New York Post's Entertainment writer. So if I'm skeptical I think you'll understand.

To be honest, for all we know, these so-called "zombies" might as well be like anyother human being (except for the odour, of course). Why would they HAVE to be dumb, by default?

Somehow I doubt they will be testing this on humans anytime soon. If they aren't allowed to test cloning on humans they certainly aren't going to be making zombies. This just somehow reeks of urban legend. But if this is true then whateva, I'll just create some nifty tire armor, trick out my car mad max style and get ready for the zombie apocolypse.

Have you?


Nope, and that is his point I beleive. No one has seen a standard zombie to which these can be compared to.


I agree, if you watch a GOOD zombie horror (like rezident evil) they explain that the zombies live to eat flesh, and reset the universe and crap, but they dont get to, instead you nuke em'.

oh, and if its based off of crygenics, they can't even revive flies from that, I doubt they'd be able to test it on dogs and have it work
