Right: a pictorial essay in intellectual creativity and the rubber duck - "The Evil Rubber Ducky", Deviant Art by powowcow
Webbed footnote: last week, at a formal naming ceremony attended by Andrew Gowers, ACID's Dids McDonald named Isabel Davies' rubber duck "McDonald Duck". The naming raised a further £105 for the coffers of the Intellectual Property Institute. If you want to support the Institute but don't want (i) to buy or (ii) to name a rubber duck, make your donations here.

No comments:
All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.
It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
