Excuse me, ah Mitch I believe Mickey is correct, ducks can speak they just don't have much to say. Seriously, get drunk and try to strick (or strike, you're choice) up a conversation with one, they talk and light your smoke and bring you fries. Just don't say the word "pressed" around them.
And I think that contraption has something to do with mapping stars, but then I talk to ducks.

Looks like some sort of draft-mans angeling tool ?
Jerry's closest so far. I can tell you that it's a typewriter, but it's a specific one. The question is: What for?
you can't just 'strike up' a conversation with a duck, you would frighten it.
you have to strick them. i thought a cornwall country boy would know that...
maybe that's why you think ducks can't speak - you've been trying to strike them!
