Today we continue our examination of Great Moments in Zombie History with your curator @Zombologist.  right about now you might be asking yourself what qualifies Zombologist for that title?  How does one get a PHD in Zombology?

In college, I majored in Micro-Biology and Anthropology.  On one of my excursions into the heart of the South American rainforests, I discovered an indigenous group of people who swore to me they were experiencing a series of attacks from seemingly reanimated individuals.   When I went out into the woods to track them, I found myself surrounded.  From reading books and watching movies, I had a fairly good sense of the way a zombie acts and smells.  The next three years held some of the most unpleasent yet informative moments of my life.  Living amongst them, acclimating to their habits and learning to hunt with them as a horde changed my life.
