my zombie escape plan aka operation "dont mention"

I have many plans, but this is one of the better ones i have heard.
My plan is the we're alive plan, but i look at it more strategically. The place where you make your Sanctuary should be able to be turned into a fortress, im talking slide down metal garge doors, solid brick/metal walls, access to a nearby water source, access to a nearby food source, (stores). A place for a garden (Fertile soil), a place to raise livestock. you should also be able to make Traps for the zombies (Really deep pits with spikes at the bottom), solar panels (if you can find any) then you can have an endless supply of power, access to weapons, ETC. yes this plan is flawed i admit it, im working on getting the kinks out, but those are my base line requirements. Im lenient so if one or two things aren't there i won't count out said place.
I rest my case

I like my plan that involes alot of guns and ammo

well thought out. in one series of books (Rhiannon Frater's As the World Dies trilogy) i read there were builders who basically walled in a city block and cleaned out buildings one at a time. there were caualties but not near the carnage you see in movies. they also had a series of gates to get into the complex with so that a large horde couldnt compromise the gate.

This is roughly the same tactic that was used in the BOOK "I Am Legend". (IMO much better than the movie. The movie was good, just a totally different story than the book)

I second that. Anyone who didn't read the book, you'll love it. There's actually a great BBC audio book of I Am Legend I believe, for those of you who prefer audio content like me. :)

I love the movie as it's own piece of art. The book was a much better masterpiece. There is no comparison to the ending of the book compared to the movie. The book is WAY better.

Oh definitely. The movie was a good "zombie" movie, but it definitely didn't deserve the title. (You know what I mean if you read the book). Plus a lot of things make so much more sense in the book than the movie. For example, in the book we know they are really vampires.

Not having watched the movie, I thought the book was excellent--full of groundbreaking ideas. Like "The Passage" sort of a zombie vampire hybrid. I have a clear minds eye vision of his neighbor jumping over the water coming out of the hose to show he could cross moving water.

I was frustrated by the whole idea that no one thought to just leave him a note "Please stop killing our relatives--by the way, we have a treatment." Maybe he meant to do that to show that a monster/legend is created partly from lack of communication?
