Pretty amazing that the rubber ducks have been able to last that long. Then again the article doesn't specify how many have actually survived the journey, though a fair amount I would guess given the ability to track them.
The closing part about the dead body in the survival suit was interesting.
Edit: Maybe if I read the title I would have see the "thousands" figure. Of course the shipment was probably larger than that I'd imagine, so I'd be interested in knowing the number of ducks that survived compared to the ones that were lost.Last edited by Jessterw; 15 July 2003, 09:57.“And, remember: there's no 'I' in 'irony'†~ Merlin MannComment

Well probably the inventory went down with the ship or overboard as well. I presume they had other matters concerning them rather than counting rubber ducks.

Those ducks must have put on quite a few miles during their journey.Originally posted by Ssin

On a side note they mentioned there was beavers that fell overboard... I don't really like the thought of Beavers having that much mileage....

Those rubber duckies are pretty resilient to last 11 years out there in the sun and weather. Wonder what they look like now after all that? And why haven't they washed ashore YET? And why do they know they are going to wash ashore in New England now?

The rubber and other materials they make those things out of is very, VERY tough stuff. And since it's designed to fend off vicious attacks by bloodthristy babies intent on eating them, they are also very resistant to giving off chemicals and thus probably can stand up to a suprising amount of weather.Comment

I'd like to see how long one would last with my dog.#1 DRILL SERGEANT PICK-UP LINE
