Duck Test is VERY On-Topic Richard. "If it... no, it's roboduck." Message from long-gone OT(?) "If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck and flaps its wings like a duck, common wisdom would dictate that it is, in fact, a duck. Wrong! Sometimes it's a roboduck." seattlep-i.nwsource.com You see Richard, using my copy of The Duck Test Rev. 322.76 not so long ago when i posted that you may not fully read and/or understand all those very long long articles for the simple reason that they all start to look alike, the same old same old evil corruption activities of man/womenKind ever since Man encounted the First con'ation when he was told "Try it, you will like it... poop poop fizz fizz, and oops no o what a relief it was as bell has no something like that of the first woman's conditioning of her man." :o) But this thread has been there and done that recently. Just as i have gone askewed on cue it seems, so back to your missing why Duck Test is on topic with this article having what can be labeled a turning point, which is where i inserted the Eve & Adam to highlight, but as usual my light was dim, at the best of times it seems, so let me do a ronMoon cut&paste to bring into thread light. Tuesday, August 28, 2001 By WINDA BENEDETTI SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER Electronic decoys put duck-hunting ethics under fire. [start] Roboducks are the latest in decoy technology. These ultra-realistic, battery-operated..... ... hunters say ... a giant step down the slippery slope into technological overkill. "In the future, you could have a remote-control duck that could walk around the field, flap its wings and take a crap if you wanted it to,"..... [stop] There it is Richard, "... have a remote-control duck... take a crap..." Imagine us all on this GPM thread losing the ability to distinguish between the normal crapola placed onto this thread on an almost hour by hour, if not minutes during peak times, with that possible using a mechanical electronic means. For sure a TOS violation. d:o)ug
