Well, that's just the problem today. Everybody is depending on this high-tech
electrical tape without any thought about the skills that we are loosing with
regards to steam tape, donkey tape and even good old fashioned 8-track tape.
Back in the seventies I was able to use a single 8-track tape to provide
music for a whole night, and the songs only repeated every 40 minutes or so.
When I mention 8-track tape to boaters today all they want to talk about is
this here "electrical" tape. Sad to see that so much important knowledge is
being lost.
