Friday Zombie Blogging - Power Generation

This article from Firefox News suggests that zombies, if properly restrained and motivated, can be used as a nearly infinite power source. Just put them on a treadmill, connect that to a generator and put a tasty brain morsel just out of reach.

I can imagine this as a creepy plot point in a Twilight Zone episode, where some company starts selling self-contained home power systems after a zombie apocalypse. They're just big black boxes that generate a constant stream of energy, but someone opens one and then it's all "Soylent Energy is people!".

PS - Or "undead people", to be precise.
PPS - I'd want my generator box heavily armoured.
