Anyone who has been on the Internet more than a week has probably received at least one of those annoying lists of "facts": dozens and dozens of items of no real significance that somebody thought would be cool for you to know. It is indeed fortunate that the lists are usually composed of I said, 'Quack' items of no real significance, because many of the entries are of dubious veracity.

A duck's quack doesn't echo, and no one knows why.

^See? I just read it again. So it must be true.
 
The purpose of these lists apparently is not to educate the masses (however trivially), but to induce readers into the information age equivalent of a scavenger hunt, sending them scurrying all over the Internet in an attempt to verify the truthfulness of the entries. Ours is one of the virtual doors that gets knocked on quite frequently by these scavengers, and while we're glad to help, our job is never done because anyone can make up lists like these — just invent four or five of the most far-fetched statements you can imagine, and follow them with the phrase "and no one knows why." To wit:

  • Ostrich eggs have no yolks, and no one knows why.
  • Julius Caesar was left-handed, and no one knows why.
  • Banging your head against a solid wall really hurts, and no one knows why.

The winner (so far) of the Most Ludicrous Entry contest is the claim that a duck's quack doesn't echo. Unfortunately, it's also the item we're most frequently asked about. The premise is just silly: a duck's quack (and presumably, of all the sounds known to man, only a duck's quack) has some special sonic property that causes it not to echo. We're not talking about a situation where a landform creates an acoustic shadow (a phenomenon under which even loud sounds can be inaudible to nearby listeners), but the claim that a duck's quack doesn't echo under any conditions.
 
I have serious problems with that particular statement, Sarek. Ludicrous, ridiculous, outrageous.

But I love hearing them.

Regardless, my massaging of Jack's ballsack is nothing compared to the fact that you've been here for over a year stalking him. Who do you think makes him come, you in-the-dark, 40-year-old moron?
 
so explain the ebay shoe purchases then, hunch...this is your chance to put up, or shut up......
