Title: Interesting read about climatic changes
Post by: deSelys on May 13, 2004, 07:40:26 AM: Global warming or cooling? (http://www.firstscience.com/site/articles/gribbin.asp)

I saw a show about this on the BBC yesterday. Some scientists say that if the conveyor belt stops 50 years from now, the cooling of Europe will compensate the global warming and the effects won't be too bad. But if it stops earlier (20 years), it will be awfully cold here.

Another nasty side effect would be the displacement of the moonsoon (sp?) zones which would lead to aridity in the tropical bands, then to famine and huge population migrations...

Interesting times ahead or not?

Note: I've read that the flamethrower, although very efficient, will contribute to the global warming and at long term will create more zombies...

Structural damage is secondary against live targets but torn ligaments and shattered bones would have more of an effect on zombies, So Bleatles microwave actually has a use as a weapon for once,for the 1st zombie the 50 others will just charge in and devour him. But the Chainsaw is where its at in modern anti-zombie warfare.

See D&D and Rifts does learn ya stuff

Big bore handguns are good for close work but I would prefer Federal hydroshoks insted of round nose slugs... much more brain matter destrution...

12 guage with double ought from an 18" barrel is about the best tho... Longer range... high powered rifle in about any caliber.

Flame throwers are a bad idea... all that fat burning (especialy with American zombies) means you have a lot of moveable bonfires.
