Hi, my name is Ken, from Sacramento, CA. I feel a little strange in this forum because everyone here seems so young; I'm closer to Burt's age. But I love zombie stories, and this is one of the best. And I've spent time in the Los Angeles area, so it's fun picturing all this mayhem in so many familiar places. I also served in the Army at Fort Irwin, and I know the territory between the base and LA well, so I'm looking forward to seeing how our heros do making the trek. When I was there I didn't think you could make the drive from Irwin to LA any worse, but I suspect that roads clogged with abandoned cars, rampaging Mallers and, of yes, hordes of zombies might do the trick.
