ruzuzu Cool, chained_bear! I've added it. Mar 6, 2010
chained_bear Hey! Duct tape?? I clicked Pro's link and found this:
Did you know that duct tape also causes light? It is caused by the breaking of the glue bonds, and you can see it if you pull a piece off the roll in a dark room. (The light is pretty dim). Look right where the tape joins the roll, on the sticky side.

I'm relieved that I haven't been imagining it. I do enough of that already :-((((((((( Mar 5, 2010
Prolagus Bilby, visit this page and find the "My husband told me" question. Mar 5, 2010
bilby I jog on the beach in front of my apartment. Sometimes my footprints glow in the dark, though only briefly. I haven't found anyone knowledgeable enough to explain what's going on. And Marvin Gaye's dead. Mar 4, 2010
