    could we plug in the pattern of outbreak into the Fibonacci sequence? Basically start in Inglewood and make a golden spiral...im not sure if it works...but might be worth checking.
    eh, I don't see it, but still a good idea. http://i.imgur.com/tagGQ.jpg

    Now, that would be interesting and would help predicting things - or at least "understanding" things better ...

    But the map, which WD linked, is kind of "simplifying", 'cause it makes no difference between Gardena, Compton, and Santa Monica. According to the color-coding all these locations were hit at the same time; but Gardena - based on our logs-information - was probably hit earlier ... *hmpf*

    Best wishes!

    I remember Micheal telling Tommy that it had a ripple pattern. Probably more of an Inverse Square pattern than Fibonacci. But, like LiamKerrington says, some of the times on the map might be off. One looks like an official WA map, the other (heat map) is fan-made.

    Have we ever seen him eat human flesh? To me, he is just a tattooed man who has solved his marriage issues ... differently.

    I like the idea of the inverse square. I think the thing to keep in mind when thinking of "how could it spread so fast?" is exponential growth...as it spreads, the time it takes to reach other areas should decrease. (think the larger the number of turned, the less time it takes for them to turn others, etc) same thing happened at boulder, like as not.

    What is interesting is the heat map. http://i.imgur.com/tagGQ.jpg Notice the bubbles in the East and the South East. The infection slows down in those directions, or they're two smaller bubbles.

    So the Question/Thought........ Is a Bite not just a Bite??? Are there multiple stages to an actual bite?? Seems to me that the Zombie bites are almost like snake bites..... Most people are getting a full dose of whatever is causing them to change........ but some are quick enough or lucky enough to only get a small dose and either become slow turners.... or whatever we want to call Saul/Tanya/Ink......
    Another thought bouncing off this idea..... If Tanya and Saul are slowly fighting off the infection internally..... is there something in their blood that could be given to everyone as a sort of cure?

    the only way i could see that happening is a last-ditch effort to save someone that was just bit. i couldn't see anyone volunteering for an injection of Saul or Tanya's blood.

    does Tanya sound a bit... unstable to anyone else?
    when she panics, she really panics.

    YES!!! And I love it. Not because I'm some sick twisted sadist, but because it finally gives her character some depth. She no longer some grumpy Mrs. Spock.

    yeah, i can see that. she also has a new(er) perspective on her remaining time. She seems very fatalistic and yet is fighting ever step of the way. if she doesn't turn (eventually) i feel she'll sacrifice herself... somehow.
