I'm sure we'd all know by now if it was possible to come back to life after death. I mean, this isn't something that would only be covered by some fringe media, especially if people like Condoleezza Rice knew about it and thought it to be a serious biological weapons threat. And there would probably be at least one hit on Google news for this crazy new word "zombism" or for the name of the town where this is supposedly happening.

P.S. Note the fact that this is pretending to be the BBC News but the URL is clearly not that of BBC News (you'll notice all the links on the page lead to the real BBC News website). Also look at the date printed on the article: April 1, 2005.
