# The door looks quite exposed
I'm not sure I'd be happy in that

# would be ok if it had a wire mesh over it and an alternative escape hatch on the top of the cabin

# Yeah, just got back from Glasto and trying to get back into w**k
though the fact that IT completely fucked things up for my replacement has meant that I've had to work twice as hard since getting back...aside from b3ta time, obviously :)

# ah glasto.....
*nostalges*

Last time I went was mid 90s. I was lucky - went three times and it never rained.

Do you have rising damp now?

# It could be an electrified pseudo-door
The zombies would attack it thinking it's a real door, because they like doors, and get electrocuted.

# I don't know if electricity works on zombies
I'd have to do more research

# only if it leads to fire perhaps
ww2.zombieinitiative.org/node/269 have some ideas.

# Max Brooks made some good points about electricity in the Zombie Survival Guide.
Apparently it still causes muscle spasms (good for throwing them off a vehicle) but the only real way to kill a zombie with it is to electrify a trench full of water and throw them in.

That book makes for some great bedtime reading.

# see also World War Z

# I've been reading some pretty promising things about that movie.
Just the other day some website was saying that it's being designed to be cinematographically similar to Children of Men.

# I guess it's pretty well-armoured,
but it also needs to be in a position where survivors can get in/out quickly. Roof hatches or airlock systems are more secure, but the door really does need to be easily accessible - there's not many ways round that (that I can think of)

# ejector seat with parachute?
(I helped save b3ta! camp freddy well, would you look at that!, Wed 29 Jun 2011, 14:57, archived)
# Good for getting out, not so great for getting in :D
I don't much like the idea of slowly parachuting down into a horde of waiting zombies. Maybe the seat could be fitted with an engine and rudder, like a microlight. Or maybe that's a little more Thunderbirds than Mad Max.
