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.
