Re: [ARSCLIST] Tape baking question



First of all, i mean not to steal
Richard H's thunder, as he knows quite
a bit more about this subject than me.

That said, it strikes me that the solution
proposed here only accounts for splices
*so* sticky as to be identifiable by touch alone.
Thus allowing selections exhibiting less
ridiculously obvious stages of hyrolysis
to miss the boat.
