I stand corrected.

I stand corrected.

No problemo.

In 2000, Lawrence Berkeley National Labs did some experimentation to see which sealants worked best for heating/air conditioning ducts. What they found was that the absolute worst sealant was duct tape, itself. When heated, the glue hardens in a matter of days, causing the tape to fall off, breaking the seal.

So, duct tape works for everything except ducts.

Pretty funny, huh? I laughed when I first read it.
