Mysteries of WD-40 Oil & Duct Tape
By David Dewey

Roger Wiegand brought up the "rednecks mantra" mentioning
duct tape.  Having just had some duct work done in a building
I manage, I thought I'd pass on this ironic observation.

According to the installer, at least here in California, duct
tape is no longer legal to use for duct work!  They have to use
a metalized tape nowadays.

Hmmm; my family motto is "Adjavante Deo" -- I think it has been
countermanded by "Backwards with Regulation!"  :)
