Are you guys crazy!?!?!?
Of course I don’t want all the wonderful people of the world to have to face such a horrific ordeal  . Ok now that the pc crap is out of the way...... This would be the only way to ever test for sure all the theories and designs we have imagined! Their is only one thing that scares me, rolling a one irl. It utterly stops my heart, and throws my stomach into my throat! That decisive moment when you succeed or fail. The movies are a fun way to look at this scenario, but in fact their are many more efficient ways to dispose of the undead. The truth of the matter is, if you think about it, people are the real threat. Dead undead, our own curiosity, stupidity, needs, and arrogance are what ultimately cause our demise. Their are two ways to die, massive trauma or systematic deterioration. It is possible to avoid one, but not the other (as of yet).
All in all the first problem would be to identify, mark, and avoid the hot zones. If you think that out of all the crazies out their not one person would push the big red button, then you need to rethink your strategy. Its really not hard to take out the shambling hordes that come to your door. The problem is the stragglers in the open, that present the constant risk of reinfecting the population.
One truism that appeals to me is that the enemy brings the weapons of war. Now obviously it would be well advised to be prepared before hand, but this is not always possible. If the enemy brings a gun, take his gun. If you do not have a gun, he cannot take it from you. No this is not foolproof, in fact it means you have to figure out how to take the gun. Now apply this theory to the zombie scenario. What weapon do they bring to the war? What confined properties do they inherently posses. well we know they are attracted to the living, they have weight and mass, they do not sleep, they do not need to eat, they are slow (of course this is specific to GAR's hordes, you would have to decide each circumstance individually), they are not too bright (again this is era specific, as we know that GAR's horde are becoming smarter), and many other conditions could be observed. You could literally put them on treadmills to generate energy! Its no joke free energy has been sought after by man for as long as we walked the earth. There weight could work against them. Dead falls connected to proceeding chutes could collect them on the outskirts of a fortified complex. Well you get the idea.
Role-playing scenarios, statistical calculations, military precision, and even gut feelings still do not guarantee any outcome. Redundant defenses, with an overall offensive plan is the only way to not only help insure the survival of our race, but also the only way to reclaim it as well.
No I dont really want it to happen. I am satisfyed with movies and games as well, but it sure is fun to consider it though
