That is correct, our friend the woodchuck chucks nothing. It is, like I said, something between a riddle and a childrens rhyme or something, and it was also in one of the Monkey Island games. To explain further, here is the original version (I think I got it right):
How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?
As you can see, it is another one of those She sells seashells at the seashore... toungedamagers. :)
And the reply, in English instead of in perl-compilerish, is as follows:
A woodchuck would chuck no amount of wood, since a woodchuck can't chuck wood.
Hope that makes it a bit clearer... :) And thanks!
