In-silo assault rifle? Arkansas?

There is more to SCIENCE! then cutting edge scientific research.

For some, it's a state of mind. It's being a rationalist. Not taking things at face value, searching for the facts. It's about not accepting something till it's been questioned and examined. It's a being keeping you mind on SCIENCE! at all times.

For others it's about crafting and creating using chemical and physical processes that are beyond the experience of most people's normal day to day life. It's more about the flash of SCIENCE! and less the substance, but it's still valid SCIENCE! and you will learn from it.

And for a select, valuable few, it's about actual science. The kinda that leads to new breakthroughs, or just refines old ones. It's the 15 year old kid that builds a fusion reactor in his garage, or the retiree that designs a short burst jet pack.

I have located all the food we will need for these long years ahead of us.

No, I'm pretty sure he wanted to put Arkansas in the silo.

This is not as terrible an idea as it sounds. Saline county, AR, was the meth capital of the world for a little while. You guys want a realistic zombie game? Grab a few dozen diseased, gaunt, hillbilly meth-heads. They're already covered in sores and open wounds; rotting flesh twisted into a caricature of a once-human life. Your average meth zombie could play the part without ever realizing he was in character.

(But that would mean giving fa/tg/uys live ammunition, and I'm not sure that would make me feel very safe. I can see it now. One fatguy will lean over to another, show him a picture out of the latest issue of Chubby Asian Trannies and simply say "This is what an elf is supposed to look like." One week and 43 dead federal agents later... )

I lol'd. But in all seriousness, they'd need to settle their differences the right way.

Socc'em Bopper Gladiator Dome in front of a live audience.

That does sound fun to watch but I think the better way would be an old fashioned gladitorial showdown, tigers slaves and giant mutant slugs.
