During experiments with reanimation at Pittsburgh's Safar Centre for Resuscitation Research a technique has been developed in which subject's veins are drained of blood and filled with an ice-cold salt solution (kinda like what they do regularly to Keith Richards [only kidding]). The animal stops breathing and is clinically dead, then the blood is replaced three hours later, and the dogs are brought back to life with an electric shock. It's that simple. "The results are stunning. I think in 10 years we will be able to prevent death in a certain segment of those using this technology," said one US doctor. Reportedly, tests will be performed on humans as soon next year.
Science has become truly frightening in recent years. We spend billions of dollars on ways to preserve life, but almost nothing on improving the quality of that life, especially in countries where its inhabitants are starving or dying of communicable diseases.
But mostly, I just hate zombie dogs. I've seen Pet Sematary, I know what goes on. No matter how sweet the owners claim the zombie dogs are, they always try to kill me and/or to devour my soul. Well, I've had more than enough of it, thank you. And now they want zombie humans roaming the earth? It's just another sign of the apocalypse.
