tho it was obviously originally "Duct" tape, it's now being branded and sold as "Duck" tape, so..., either could apply.

...I took it as a tongue-in-cheek reference because he used it so many times and was very deliberate about it. Consider too the story involves a lot of ingenious improvisation, maybe too much of it..... and as we all know, duct/duck tape is the universal enabler of modern improvisation.

    You must be thinking of Duck Tape, which is a very poor version of good duct tape (e.g. 3M, which the pros use, me too). I don't even know why I keep Duck Tape around; it does come in colors though, and the fluorescent ones are sometimes useful.
    
    Real duct tape *does* stick very well to ducts...hard to believe, eh? They didn't just pull the name out of their ass. It also kind of explains why Duck Tape *isn't* called duct tape.

    I have learned not to travel without a roll of it, whatever one may choose to call it.

    Does 'duck' tape stick to ductwork?
