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

That's an urban myth that has long since been disproven.

It was an otherwise entertaining post though. Anybody got any more interesting facts?

Do you think punctuation marks were invented for cosmetical reasons, or what?

The bit about rat poison is incorrect. Why they may indeed not be able to vomit, what kills them is that rat poison contains large amounts of warfarin, which causes severe internal bleeding.

People suffering from blood clots and other circulatory ailments, and they may or may not be rats, take this same drug, but obviously in smaller doses.
