Something for you all to remember if you pursue a technical career, while there is "Duck" brand duct tape, it is very important to know when a duck is a duck and a duct is a duct. Several years ago we fired an engineer for incompetence. One of the signs of his ineptitude was that all of his ventilation drawings labeled the ducts as ducks.
Yeah, I was debating whether I wanted to spell it duct, duck, duk, duc, etc.

Doesn't really have anything to do with ducts either. The History Channel had a neat program about the history and manufacture of the aforementioned adhesive product.
