They don't need to simulate a disaster to train people - they can just have people commute on MUNI and manage that disaster for a day for yuks.

Damn it, the zombies are at 2pm... I suppose that makes sense since the nuclear attack wouldn't immediately cause zombies. Radioactivity isn't instant.

This sounds to me like it needs a Zombie flash mob.

yay for NERT! But on a Saturday? They should do the drill during a critical mass evening. Now *that* would be an effective drill for chaos management.
