Hi,  
Wikipedia has an entry on Duck Typing, that I intend too clean up. I  
am aware that Ruby does duck-typing admirably and would ask the  
interested to peruse [Talk:Duck typing - Wikipedia](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Duck_typing) and  
add to the discussion anything they think is relevant prior to the re-  
write. (That is the Discussion page or this thread).

I write in Python, (ducks, peers out from behind a tree), but have  
been trying to make my explanations generic.

Thanks in advance, Paddy.
