I definitely wasn't trying to be rude when I said that. I just know that there are a looooot of young kids here (I met Shelton when he was really young, here). So, I know that for my 12 year old sister (the youngest age I have seen here), the concept of any sort of ecology or evolution would be super eh. More of a "whatever you say" moment lol

And I'm also not saying that anyone really knows (in the RP) that the virus or whatever it is, is actually anything to do with anything. Like Hershel, they might simply think it's an act of God.

I wrote a short proposal about the science behind the Walking Dead, which is where my idea of an evolutionary device came from :)

I also think that it would be interesting to play in their wake. Shelton would have a lot of fun with the whole idea of a good soldier in the middle of all of the bombing and needless killing that slammed Atlanta in the beginning :)
