According to most statistical modeling of potential 'zombie' infestations it would all be over bar a few small quiet hold out pockets of survivors in the first few hours for most cities let alone days even with traditional 'Romero' slow zombies (the only true zombies!).<br/><br/>That's pretty stark of course and likely wouldn't make such a compelling story.<br/><br/>As for the world, well, this is our version of it and we can make it what we want it to be. I wrote about there being previous history of zombie stuff in my post due to having read back through the posting history and seeing a reference to it in this post...<br/><br/>msg7680116 (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=164890.msg7680116#msg7680116)<br/><br/><hr/><br/>As for organization, we as a species do tend to organize to a good extent, especially in time of trouble, once the panic is over. Though, I don't know that what I wrote is all that 'organized'. People were coming and going a lot, there was a fair bit of panic and confusion and it did get people killed. If you believe that's unrealistic, well, please, offer more constructive criticism. How would you have written the opening for the second group? Would you like me to retract my post and you take a swing at the opening? Is that what everyone else would like?<br/><br/>I am not trying to be antagonistic, just would like to see consensus and to better understand your point.
