******HOLY SHIT CDC Warns Public to Prepare for 'Zombie Apocalypse'*********

Are you prepared for the impending zombie invasion?

That's the question posed by the Centers for Diseases Control and Prevention in a Monday blog posting gruesomely titled, "Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse." And while it's no joke, CDC officials say it's all about emergency preparation.

X right again

"People love to pretend, and to watch others pretending. From story-telling to plays to movies to virtual reality, we keep getting better at making people feel like they are watching imagined places and events. We also keep getting better at role-playing, i.e., creating enviroments where several people can see what happens when they all pretend they are different people in another time and place. Eventually such role-playing simulations may get so good that people will often forget that it is just a simulation.

This brings us to the intriguing premise of many recent movies, including The Matrix, 13th Floor, Truman Show, and Dark City: what if people in the future create role-playing simulations where the people in it do not know that it is a simulation? This premise naturally leads to a premise even more thought-provoking: future people might create simulations of a world much like our world. If so, how sure can each of us now be that we are not now living in a such a role-playing simulation?

A related scenario is the holodeck of the television show Star Trek Next Generation. The holodeck offers computer-generated environments which allow real people to role-play not only with each other, but also with sophisticated computer-simulated people. Today, computer-simulated humans contain only a pale shadow of the complexity and sophistication of real humans. But eventually, if we continute to make better simulations at lower cost, at least some of our simulated humans may be as sophisticated as real humans. In a holodeck, a simulated person might not realize that they were simulated. So the question arises: how sure can we each be that we are not a simulated person in a future holodeck simulation?"

bump for X!

Love me some X.

So our disaster plan in North America, is to head to the West Coast and get onto boats.

In Resident Evil, they ask the question, should we go to Alaska?

No. The cold weather will be too much for most people.

But first things first, get onto ships, so that you will not be contaminated by disease, the wind will come off the ocean so you have less chance of fallout from radiation, and ships have marine band radio, and they can be lived on and are mobile.

Dose Fukushima change things?

Was it not foreseen?

I want some of whatever the OP is smoking!!!!

ok.. started reading and got tired of reading posts by OP (sorry- not a lot of time)
