You really can't blame the duck for being afraid of the water. Imagine the first time his mama and the other ducklings took to the water, and he couldn't get anywhere. Probably scarred him for life.
On the one hand, why have a website if you don't want anyone to know about it? And why should a government agency have a "secret" but accessible website?
If it's an internal site, it can be passsword-protected. Otherwise, its silly to hide it.
My mother-in-law has paradoxical insomnia. She tells me all the time how she can never sleep in the daytime, and she's jealous that I can. Then when I go visit, she's snoring so loud I can hear her through the door! Later, she'll say she tried to sleep, but never did. Various housemates have confirmed the same thing happens at night. She'll talk all the next day about how she didn't get a wink of sleep, but the snoring kept waking her sister up!
