Absolutely. And the best way to help your neighbor and many others to
"un-zombie" is to listen to Rush Limbaugh every day, for three hours a day; and
then listen to Sean Hannity for another three hours a day, every day (it's all
he asks anyway, just 3 hours a day, now more than ever). :) :)

In short order they'll "un-zombie" :)
