subtitled: "Weighing the evidence for and dating of Solanum virus outbreaks in early Egypt", I get the impression that this article may not be entirely serious. ;')

Sounds like the start of a very bad Sci-Fi movie.

Thank heavens for professional publications! You can't get decent advice on surviving a zombie attack from the comic books - I've tried, Lord knows I've tried. Oh, sure, you find out all about blowing their heads off with a double-barreled shotgun, but there are neighborhoods where everyone doesn't carry a double-barreled shotgun all the time (thank God I don't live in one). In those cases whatchagonnado?
You'd think it would be easy to figure that a guy staggering around drooling and looking for brains would be a tipoff but in a world where Hollywood actors, broadcast news anchors, and Democrats (but I repeat myself) are allowed to run around loose you only end up wasting ammo. Oh, sure, it's satisfying but double-ought costs bucks and you don't want to run short. Four zombies and Michael Moore chasing you around a tree and you don't want to be waiting for the FedEx guy to bring you your Cheaper Than Dirt backorder. That would suck.

Zombies, it had to be zombies . . . .
