Right, before I ask my question, I saw this amusing picture.

I can do that :) I rarely do because I have to have a certain amount of time accumulated by the end of a 5 week term and it doesn't leave much room for play BUT I have some hours "banked" that I can use for whatever I please :)

Are there maximum limits on how much time you can accumulate per week?

There are. The board that certifies us states that we can only "work" (work includes actual classroom time AND clinical time) 40 hours a week. And we can only work up to 10 hours a day. We HAVE to go to class 2 times a week and clinic 3 times a week. You can only miss 20% of either class or clinical before you're excused from the program. So however many extra hours we can bank is dependent on how many classes we have to take.
Very confusing stuff. Took me months to get it straight.

I suppose ducks. Or geese, swans... they're pretty mean birds. A friend keeps swans and they can be evil.
Besides, atomic bombs have been used in targeted situations, not every day, and duck attacks have been going on longer.
You get the points.
but the main thing was that in 1918 to 1919 at the end and just after the end of World War I 25 million people were killed by Spanish flu which was spread largely by ducks, more people than were killed in military action during the war.

That's an indirect kill, though... suppose it still counts.
