PSA
For most of my life I operated under the impression that Duck Tape came from the lazy tongues of Americans trying to say Duct Tape. Now I know the truth. Duck Tape predates Duct Tape. Duck tape originated with the US military as a product to seal ammunition cases against water damage. But you can't call all Duck Tape Duct Tape. In order to qualify as Duct Tape the Duck Tape has to meet certain heat requirements.

That just hurts my brain reading it...
To put it another way:
The Duck Tape isn't Duct Tape unless Duck can stand Duct heat.
