		<description>I just got back from Falling Water, and I have to say it is not the choice home for zombie protection.  The seamless windows that run up the entire length of the house would act like a zombie latter, and be almost impossible to board up.  Like Taliesin, Falling Water has no basement for &quot;last-stand â€œsuicide&quot;&quot;.

However, just minutes away from Falling Water is Kentuck Knob.

http://www.kentuckknob.com/

Now that is a house meant for zombie defense.  One side has no real windows.  Just shapes, used to build the house, cut into the wood along the top boarder.  The entire house is on a large hill.  Now I understand the earlier posters concern about machine gun use, but if you know how to use a machine gun higher ground is still a clear advantage in any battle.  

The area is surrounded with trees.  I would suggest trenching around the house, and spreading diesel fuel through out the forest, and setting it with a trigger.   You&#039;ve only got one small seamless window to bock and it&#039;s close to a hill side.  There are some large windows to worry about, but they are on top of a wall.  

This home is wildly different, because it does have a basement for &quot;&quot;last-stand â€œsuicide&quot;&quot;.

		<description>I work at Taliesin, and this is so funny. So this is what people talk about when they&#039;re on tour... hmmm. 

We&#039;ve had our own scenario, which is FLLW as the James Bond nemesis. FLLW has his plan for world domination: the construction of Broadacre City. He invites Mies van Der Rohe, Corbusier and Gropius to his living room to explain the plot, but Mies declines. So he&#039;s thrown off the Birdwalk into the pond (which is stocked with man-eating sharks) by Wes Peters. People are trapped inside the Taliesin Estate because the Romeo &amp; Juliet Windmill tower shoots laserbeams, and mosquito hordes subdue all other commers (it&#039;s been a mild mosquito year, here, but usually they&#039;re unbelievable). 

That&#039;s about as far as we got, but Wes Peters (FLLW&#039;s son-in-law, who was 6&#039;4&quot;) was to be FLLW&#039;s henchman who uses a compass with a sharp end as his secret weapon. Oh, and James Bond is finally saved by the arrival of the US secret service. On a Taliesin shuttle bus. Other tourists try to get onto the shuttle bus when the secret service guys are loading at the visitor center, but unfortunately, the tourists have to be told, &quot;I&#039;m sorry, the 3:00 armed assault on Taliesin is sold out. Would you like a Hillside tour?&quot;</description>

		<description>Zombie animals could be a huge problem.  I would suggest 
no one attempt to hide in a zoo.   Think about it, if zombie squirrels and beavers can ruin so many plans , what would zombie bears, zombie lions and zombie pythons do to even the best tought out plans?
    
   Land of the Dead looks awesome! I&#039;m going to see it tonight!</description>

		<description>This is indeed shocking news, Jim. Thanks for alerting us. I have elevated it to its own post.

I found this website because I was trying to verify what this gentlemen wrote in a review of &#039;Land of the Dead&#039;:  
(from:  http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/features/20050624-9999-1c24dead.html)



Does anyone believe this?  Or is this reviewer just pulling things out of the air?   Is Kaufman in the latest Romero Zombie movie a nod to the first owner of Fallingwater?</description>

		<description>Yes, I agree. From now on, all posts on this thread must be about George Romero&#039;s &lt;i&gt;Land of the Dead&lt;/i&gt;, which comes out tomorrow! (From Atmosphere Entertainment, which is in no way affiliated with the Frank Lloyd Wright Trust.)
