сейчас "Эльдорадио" порадовало - они почему-то решили, что сегодня годовщина принятия сигнала SOS, ошиблись немного
а, кстати, кто знает, как расшифровывается этот сигнал? ;-)
[Poll #1302001]
P.S. оригинальную трактовку предложили переводчики фильма "Вне досягаемости", который показывали вчера по РенТВ, там девочка выложила сигнал SOS из бутербродов с икрой, а голос за кадром бодро перевел "это ловушка" :-)))

Date: 2008-11-22 08:10 am (UTC)The precursor to the current tapes was developed in the 1930s in Minneapolis, Minnesota by Richard Drew to seal a then-new transparent material known as cellophane.[1] Although it is a trademarked brand name, it is sometimes used in the US and elsewhere as a generic term for transparent adhesive tape. The Scotch brand includes many different constructions of tape.
Use of the term "Scotch" in the name has a pejorative origin. To cut costs 3M applied the adhesive only to the edges of the tape. A remark was made by a St. Paul automobile detailer that the stingy Scotch bosses needed to put more adhesive on it, and the name has stuck ever since.[2] Scotty McTape, a kilt-wearing cartoon boy, was the brand's mascot for two decades, first appearing in 1944.[3] The familiar plaid design, a take on the Wallace tartan, was introduced in 1945.[3]
Peeling of Scotch tape in a vacuum results in the rapid emission of x-rays.[4]
The Scotch brand and Scotch Tape are registered trademarks of 3M.
3M branded audio tape (cat. no. 996)
Besides using "Scotch" as a prefix in its brand names (Scotchgard and Scotchlite), the company also used the name "Scotch" for its (mainly professional) audiovisual magnetic tape products,[5] until the early 1990s when the tapes were branded solely with the 3M logo. In 1996 3M exited the magnetic tape business, selling its assets to Quantegy (which is a spin-off of Ampex).
