Absolutely ready. Loaded for bear, travel with med supplies, p iodate, coms, nv, food, water, shelter, rifles and cases of loaded mags, etc. Probably hurts my fuel economy!

I was thinking of strong handling myself a cruise liner or something.

No, but they also can't drown, so that means they can do the Pirates of the Caribbean thing and walk on the bottom of the ocean or lake!

This is a good point; however, other possibilities to consider are predation by fish, sharks, etc. Depending on the type of zombies, are these creatures also going to become zombified? Also Seagulls and any bird for that matter are going to be a problem. I do believe this will be unlikely, so assuming no transfer to other species, zombies will be unable to have buoyancy control, so zombies on the bottom of the lake or ocean are not my concern as pressure and dissolving tissue should neutralize the problem after a short time.

LOL...I LOVE how we can analyze this!

...but if you think about it, you probably can't assume there will be NO cross-species issues - isn't that the most current fear we have - avian flu passing from bird to human?

I'd be more concerned with some variant of mad cow...might not make you a true zombie, but 6 vs. 1/2 dozen, right?
