a duck's quack certainly does echo. I've heard them and their echoes, many times. Sound waves are sound waves, friend.

I would agree friend. I never thought that was true.

a quack does echo, its just ducks quack no where near any reflective surfaces. put a duck in an empty concrete room and it will echo. Scientist tried it and it works.

And while we're at it, the name Wendy wasn't invented for Peter Pan.
