Fresh From The Department Of Nothing Better To Do

Mathematicians from the University of Ottawa (Go fighting Gee-Gees!) have discovered that zombie attacks may lead to the destruction of mankind unless dealt with quickly. Coming to such a profoundly revealing conclusion requires either a PhD in applied mathematics or a 3-day weekend, a George Romero* boxed set, and a VCR.

Apparently these math wunderkinds use the same sort of procedures that they would use for studying outbreaks of a real pandemic. It's a good thing that there are currently no real-world pandemic outbreaks that might distract them from this important work.


*Fun fact file: George Romero was inspired to go into horror directing after working on a segment of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood.
