Sounds a great way for an advertising company to compile a list of numbers of people who are so bored that they would phone a number to hear a duck quacking

(Didn't Michael Dell make his first million doing something like that )

Well, as I said, "only for Americans", is because most non-Americans have a dry sense of humor .

Hehe, I think I'm gonna start a war.

Bring it on, people!

You know I'm funny as hell!

The phone number of that option is just a joke, just to make people laugh, as I said, some people don't have a sense of humor in the world. Makes me unhappy .

Well I thought that it was very funny - somewhere in some ad agency in Madison Square there is some junior exec rushing into a VPs office and saying something like "Gee Mr Hackenbacker - we have 182,126 americans who will dial a number to hear the sound of a duck quacking"

. . . Oh - and one person from Madras (Hi Active).

I was - as we say - pulling your leg Matthew (althugh if you start getting telesales calls with a load of ducks quacking in them don't say I didn't warn you )

Nearly a year ago.

And Deviating from this topic...

What are the free International Calling Services on the
Web that let me call to the UK for free ??

2 or 3 months Before I used Go2Call.com but now
it's no longer free...
