huh? I dunno, is there a difference? I just wouldn't want the zombies that can run, use weapons, drive, or learn. that would suck.

Having served in Aldershot, I believe they are known as The Parachute Regiment!

then the bodies would decay too swiftly.
the Zombies you are talking about are all what has been dubbed "hell" or "infernal" zombies.
the brain dies and decays without oxygen without the brain the nerve can't pulse, without the nerves there is no movement. Not to mention, a zombie's head is it's weakness,

If, a rogue government, not unlike the ones stupid enough to build MORE nuclear (noo-clee-arr) warheads, where to cook up a zombie apocalypse, It is to their best bet to go with science, because let's face it. satan is too lazy, abaddon's in chains, and a bunch of the other guys downstairs just don't care enough to pick up the phone

the concept of a zombie can be interpreted as mainly "things that really should've stopped moving"
we pump them with holes and they only don't die right away.
they don't feel pain likely because the sensory nerves that run through the spinal cord have been largly deadened or weakened (hence the stumbling,). and the frontal lobe of the brain is responsible for concious thought, but not instinct, also likely targeted.

So instead of sled dogs, the Iditarod should be raced with Zombies using a piece of fresh corpse on a long stick to motivate them (fast moving zombies only).

Bet I could set a new record, well, until they actually got a hold of the piece of corpse and were looking for seconds. (YIKES)

Wow, that is some deep discussional thought about zombies; this has taken it to the next level. Both with some thought out stuff.

I would have to agree that the cold temperatures would reek havoc on the zombies. I've come across many animal carcasses in the cold snow and that I would compare to the zombie. It is hard, "extremely" hard and the snow and cold do destroy it as it would the zombie. What is left of the mind that drives it would cease to exist as it freezes. In fact dead skin that dies usually falls off. AND THEN you have to add the cycle of life into the equation. Roving animals would smell the decaying zombie and would have themselves an easy snack; think a 10 foot tall polar bear.

But ifthe zombies attacked the polar bear would we have a zombie bear?

Prett frightening as, allegedly, the polar bear is one of the only predators with a specific hunt pattern for humans.

I'll lift the igloo, you grab the human

wasn't there a film with german soldier zombies in a lake? Zombie Lake?
