In summary, a zombie outbreak is likely to lead to the collapse of civilisation, unless it is dealt with quickly. While aggressive quarantine may contain the epidemic, or a cure may lead to coexistence of humans and zombies, the most effective way to contain the rise of the undead is to hit hard and hit often. As seen in the movies, it is imperative that zombies are dealt with quickly, or else we are all in a great deal of trouble.

TechCrunch says that a proposed military robot known as EATR would refuel on biomass while deployed on missions. If it’s on the battlefield, it could potentially be eating on people too. I question whether or not that would happen on two counts.

One: dude, it’s HUMANS. Two: if Max Brooks didn’t write a book about it, it’s not possible.
