Scotch Tape Invented

In 1930 Scotch Tape was patented by the 3M company. This tape, a pressure sensitive one, has become one of the most popular tapes in the world. Its popularity is so unchallenged, that many people around the world refer to all transparent tape as Scotch tape.

A Way To Celebrate

We use so many products in our lives without ever stopping to think of where they came from. We take modern convenience for granted today. But what if these products we use so often had never been invented? How would we live without Scotch tape?

Take time today to list ten modern consciences that we take for granted. Enjoy these products as if for the first time and enjoy a new respect for things we already own.

In case your wondering what's on my list. My number 1 is the toilet.
