I think it's supposed to be "Rotting Flesh" or something.
It doesn't have any purpose as of yet.

Besides, if you were to eat zombie meat you would turn into a zombie! Duh!

Check your zombie survival guide! Eating zombie flesh is fatally poisoness, but it doesn't turn you into a zombie!

That is actually from a book called "The Zombie Survival Guide" by Max Brooks. A must read for fans of the undead.

Beags, that's the same book I was referring to actually smile
I had the impression that any sort of transfer, I.E. bodily fluids, bites, etc. would give you the solanum (spelling) virus.

Looks like I'll be doing a second read through of it some time!

Meh, it could be me that's mis-remembering. Either way, it's a great book. Have you read "World War Z" by the same author? It's even better!

Also, I recently heard they're (you know, they) making Pride and Prejudice and Zombies into a movie. Which means I need to finish reading it.

I've been wanting to read World War Z for a while, which they're also making a movie of. If I remember correctly, it's starring Brad Pitt, and being filmed in Glasgow.

Haven't read Pride, Prejudice, and zombies either - but I heard it was good.

I'd heard they were making World War Z, but filmed in Glasgow? All of it? It's set in about twenty different locations from a suburb outside of New York to a mountain pass road in India. Nothing against Glasgow, but I think the film makers will struggle to find sufficient diversity in geology there.

Also, they might get head butted.

The setting is in New York, but filmed in Glasgow.
The new Batman movie is being filmed in New York right now, so that may have been part of their reasoning to move to Glasgow.
I'm not sure on how that kind of stuff works though.

Edit --
You were right! This is from the book, "A zombie bite, although by far the most recognized is by no means the only one. Humans have been infected by brushing their open wounds against those of a zombie or by being splattered by its remains after an explosion. Ingestion of infected flesh (provided the person has no open mouth sores), however, results in PERMANENT DEATH rather then infection. Infected flesh has proven to be highly toxic."

Nice work out of you Beag. smile
