Good ol' Duct/Duck tape goes by many names though it was originally named Duck by the military for the waterproof ability. Through the years since WWII both the names and uses have multiplied and are too numerous to list without taking up the rest of your day. One of the most recent uses occurred in Providence,RI where a crew from National Grid used Duct tape to hold together a pole that had been split when a truck ran into it. The pole was scheduled to be replaced in the future but a concerned citizen in the area was afraid the fix wasn't going to hold so after 3 weeks of holding the damaged pole together they moved up the repair and replaced to pole earlier this week. Got to love that stuff!
