I'm one of those, as a result of DuckTales.

I also once had an astounded "CARL BARKS invented communism?!?" conversation 
in early high school. :-)

This is a little off-topic, but let me share it anyway!  I teach freshmen
English courses at a state university and I often ask my students out of
curiosity, "How many of you have heard who Carl Barks is?"  Usually about
five folks raise their hands.  Then I explain that The Communist Manifesto
was written by some other guy.  Sigh.
