I was only commenting on the fact where people could be confused about the posts & the thread names...BUT, now that you mention it...
I want you boys to run upstairs and give yourself a good scrubbing. You're much to filthy & you won't get dinner unless I can see my reflection shining in your little faces! |

I have only ran over 4 Armadillos in my life. It happened all at once because I hit a family of them crossing the road. They all lived. Felt like I hit a few speed bumps. |

Here's the reply I JUST got from 3M.
So it's kinda official, I guess...
"Dear Rod,
Thank you for your inquiry. We appreciate hearing from you.
Please be advised that 3M did not invent Duct Tape.
Is it Duct or Duck? We don't want you to be confused, so we will explain.
The first name for Duct Tape was DUCK. During World War II the U.S.
Military needed a waterproof tape to keep the moisture out of ammunition
cases. So, they enlisted the Johnson and Johnson Permacel Division to
manufacture the tape. Because it was waterproof, everyone referred to it
as? Duck? Tape (like water off a duck's back). Military personnel
discovered that the tape was good for lots more than keeping out water.
They used it for Jeep repair, fixing stuff on their guns, strapping
equipment to their clothing... the list is endless.
After the War, the housing industry was booming and someone discovered that
the tape was great for joining the heating and air conditioning ductwork.
So, the color was changed from army green to the silvery color we are
familiar with today and people started to refer to it as duct tape.
Therefore, either name is appropriate.
Today, Henkel Consumer Adhesives manufactures Duck |

My nose runs and my feet smell. Am I built upside down, or am I from Australia, where the water runs up-hill? My Nikes are Stinke. My Converses are Perverses. Adida wash them, but they still stank |

I think we just uncovered something. I checked out te "Henkel" site and it made no mention of 3M in the Legal. That note from 3M is saying that the Henkel product is teriffic. Apparently 3M owns them as well. I worked for a wholesale company of office supply and computer perhipherals, you would be shocked what 3M dabbles in. They are even into weapons. They have their grubby little hands in everything, even Microsoft. |

I had a smelly snicker one time. I didn't eat it, though. I was afraid. |

Anyone surprised at how long 3M's fingers are should take a look around and realize that every large corporation has diversified so damned much that they're almost impossible to keep track of.
Many of the current leading medical companies made the chemicals that were dumped on Vietnam. Lilly, etc. They were all there, all the biggies. Many of the pharmaceutical companies, because they dealt with chemicals, supplied all of the components, if they did not do the actual mixing and shipping. They knew what they were for.
You'd be surprised at some of the stuff companies like Boeing own.
All you have to do is look around, the connections are all there. |

Wow, I'm so surprised at the responses! It's scary to think that I've induced a thread name-change! |
