Zombie Fungus

I have a zombie survival plan, I’ve invested many hours into it and it’s rarely far from mind. The reason why I do this is simple, I don’t actually believe that a zombie apocalypse will happen; it merely forces me to account for everything in the plan. This makes the plan less a “zombie survival plan” and more a “multiple worst case scenario plan.” Like, “a bunker is nice, what happens when you run out of food?” or “that tower has few access points which makes it easy to secure, what about if there is a tornado, earthquake, etc?” The principle behind the zombie survival plan is “if you want to survive you need to be ready for things to get way worse,” which accounts for multiple disasters. Also you need to start considering things like how gas won’t be making it to you inside the disaster zone so you learn how to make diesel using cooking oil (http://chemistry.about.com/od/chemistryhowtoguide/a/makebiodiesel.htm) and things to that effect. At no point did I think to myself, “I’m actually going to have to worry about zombies.”
