IJMC - Duct Tape to Bed

Lo and behold I am once again awake far too late. However, I think my 
sleeplessness tonight has been for good...or at least I hope it has. Some 
will stay up to have fun, drink, and be merry. Tonight it was suggested 
that I should do so more often and perhaps I am too serious. Right now, 
that is who I am. I stay up for good things. Not always...yet more often 
than otherwise. Staying up for nothing is not worth staying up for. And 
making sense is far too over-rated. Good night, and good luck in figuring 
out what I might have just said. Or don't.                          -dave

  Study: duct tape almost always fails....on ducts 

    (Pacific Grove, California) -- It's a universal fix-it for just
about everything these days -- from home repairs to rips in your jeans.
    But it seems duct tape doesn't work on the job it was actually
designed for -- sealing ducts.
    Reseachers in California say the familiar sticky silver tape was
never really tested to see how well it seals together ducts carrying hot
or cold air. So, they tested it -- and the tape failed miserably.
