Hey man, don't sweat it. There is no need to apologize. Thanks for the heads up. Good luck on your exams and remember real life duties are far and beyond more important than GUN. We'll still be here when you are finished.

My graduates in university are in two weeks... Pain and despair...
_________________ If someone interested: 1 horsepower=45 duckpower
WHY?:
1 horsepower (HP) was defined ( reference: ) by taking a horse that could pull with a force of 180 lbs, and the calculation comes out to ~32,572 ft*lbf / min. To estimate the pulling power of a duck, I will consider that they have enough force to propel themselves up into the air, so that is at least a force matching their weight (1.6-3.5 lbs). Since birds of prey can sometimes take off with a fish (perhaps 1 lb), I'll estimate that a duck or other similarly-sized bird can generate 4 lbs of force. HP formula from wikipedia gives: P = W/t = F * d / t = 4 lbf * 2.4 * 2pi * 12 ft / 1 min = 723 ft*lbf/min But this simplifies to a comparison of 4 lbs of force in the duck to 180 lbs of force from the horse.. 180/4 = 45. So perhaps 45 ducks, if they could all apply maximal force in the same direction, at the same time, might be able to generate the horsepower of 1 horse.
