Teflon is about the only thing to which geckos won't stick.

Actually that's not true. If you don't use enough butter or cooking oil, it's really hard to get the spatula under them, even on a teflon pan.

Clothing with pockets or ornamentation that can be removed or repositioned

Like Velcro?

Actually, I think it's quite interesting, despite my smarta$$ remark.

I once owned a Tokay gecko. It could climb a pane of glass.

"Scientists unravel mystery of geckos' sticky feet"

I heard the new theory was something like: all the different species of geckos are born on the floor near the front row of of a movie theater!

"...geckos are able to stick to surfaces because they can exploit weak molecular attractive forces..."

In a related story, scientists have determined that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton is able to stick to American politics by exploiting weak-minded Democrat voters.

The local gecko lizards have my undying respect. Their favorite food seems to be cockroaches. It's considered lucky to find geckos hiding in your garage or outbuildings.

Unless you happen to uncover one during the day, you generally see them at night and they come in wierd colors.
