And I am glad to see that we can agree on this important topic. For too long have we been forced to stretch logic to explain the capacity of sleep-walking zombies to catch and eat spry humans. Romero was a god, clearly, but zombiedom has moved on to the 28 Days/I Am Legend style of zombie. There's no going back. We will not surrender our rights! Zombies must be allowed to run! Mike:

Until the asteroid strike. Then of course the steam ships become pirate ships in effect, like Viking raiders. Preying on the few land-bound humans who have managed to survive the zombies. Of course there would be zombies. Duh.
