I judge a country's development by how much duct tape they use and how easy it is to buy. It works...in eastern Africa, you almost never see the stuff. I used to bring it with me from home. In South America, in some places it is rare, but in the more developed countries it can be bought in any store. I call it the duct tape indicator.

Good morning Cuttn -

It is also an indicator of the amount of stuff that we have that breaks. My FIL was one of the kings of duct tape - he would not leave home without it.

Good luck with the geniuses today.

Duct tape and caulk...

The only two things a handiman ever truly needs.

Even in Chile.....
