very confusing post

http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=24&thread=544330 is really confusing me. I am trying to grasp some access concepts here but different ppl seem to be getting different results, could somebody explain?

I dont see much confusing in there. Just try the code and see for yourself

Protected is based on either the same package (which the example is not) or inheritance.

Duck1 does inherit from Bird, however the access is from a static method of Duck1, and is therefore not being used with inheritance. If an instance method of Duck1 had tried to access it, it would have worked.
