A Correction...but we admit no error. We insert
little factoids under the "did you know" headings to serve as fillers.
Some pieces are of unknown origin that have been published
anonymously elsewhere. James McCutchen, a Case Manager for CP Civil,
quickly responded to last issue's "duck's quacks don't echo" assertion, with
a column clipped from the Philadelphia
Weekly. Evidently, some midwesterneer sought
confirmation of the "no echo" allegation
and could get neither verification nor
denial from the animal science department at Michigan State
University. The author then conducted his own experiment in some
quack-a-mamy location with an alleged duck and generated an echo.
Well, Mr. McCutchen, we
don't admit we're wrong so easily. If you or anyone else can get a duck's
quack to echo in City Hall courtyard, we'll not only admit we're wrong, but
we'll give you an FJD coffee mug!
Did You Ever Wonder.....
how they get deer to cross at those yellow road signs?
why kamikaze pilots wore helmets?
