    I'd have to disagree here, but my reasoning may be a little flawed, and
I don't have my book here (why's that, Theo? ;-).  By and large, the Syker
powers that affect the mind don't have any effect on your standard walkin'
dead.  There's a manitou in there, but I'd say nothing but a head shot would
affect your average zombie.  There's just not enough of a 'presence' there
otherwise.
