Paper has been folded more than 7 times....with mechanical help

A duck's quack DOES echo........it does so on the EXACT frequency as the original echo and is thus hard to detect (See the show Mythbusters)

I seen those episodes.

Gotta love Mythbusters.

Why was a duck's echo picked as opposed to anything else that makes noise? That is the burning question.

some more interesting trivia...

female armadillos almost always give birth to quadruplets

Calico cats are virtually always female (the probably of a male is something like a million to one)

So, where do the females find males to mate with?

don't be concerned if you don't keep your toothbrush at least 6 feet away from the toilet; the amount of airborne particles that can get on it is so small it's nothing to worry about. I think it's less than 5%.

I heard that on "MYTHBUSTERS"

catlover79 · 11-30-2007, 02:46 AM

I know I was shocked to read that statistic about Marlboro.

Since one of my interests is Astronomy, I knew the one about Venus rotating clockwise.
