Actually duck's quacks do echo. They're just very quiet......no I am not clever, Myth Busters proved it.

Right... todays experiment...

equipment required:

One duck ( more might be needed as control ducks)
Large enclosed space, such as empty warehouse or garage .
(I suspect that there is no-one on YD with an empty garage though)
Person (to make duck quack)

Who will take on the challenge? Sadly, i have to decline, as i have neither access to a duck (although I might be able to steal one from the park) nor a garage.

Volunteers?

On the subject of ducks and echoes. I was in Dartmouth for breakfast this morning and there was a duck quacking in the harbour. I must say I thought it echoed. What do I win?

Bacon cobs and Stoney's changing rooms would suffice, but I bet the staff won't be happy to have floors covered in quack-crap!
