Michael Nesmith’s mom invented liquid paper, if I recall.

Velcro was a customer of mine at one time, they were very particular that you called it ‘hook and loop’.

I remember thinking, “You’re battling the tide here. It’s like asking people to refer to kleenex as tissue.”

Not Velcro, whiteout (the white tape that we used to use to cover up typos when we used typewriters). I actually knew one of the guys who was an early investor in Velcro. He was a fellow student in my scuba diving class in Canada in the early eighties. He was learning how to dive because he was planning to buy a yatch, LOL.
