Task two: Know Your Zombie

In Voytek's non-fiction pamphlet entitled "The Science of Surviving The Zombie Apocalypse", he states that there are five defects a zombie has that you can abuse to stay alive. The author supports his claim by listing the defects zombies have and talks of the research he has done on the brain of a zombie. The first two defects zombies have are that they are slow so you can out run them and they suffer from amensia, allowing you to hide from them to forget about you. The author next proceeds to show that zombies are easily tricked and suffer heavy brain damage. As Voytek explains, "...the walking dead suffer from a condution they called.Consciousness Deficit Hypoactivity Disorder" (Voytek). Zombies are immune to pain and are easily distracted. Finally, the author argues that the last defect zombies suffer from is capgrass delusions. Capgrass delusions confuses the zombie when you mimic it, making think you are a zombie too in order to buy some time and get to safety.
