If this stuff doesn't do that then bring it on.

I use Dual Lock to attach my valentine 1 to the brake reservoir on my motorcyles... works for a while then you have to reel in the radar detector by it's cord at 80mph as it flaps around behind you.]]>May 20th 2007 12:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/

Aside: people go a little apeshit with the trademark enforcement sometimes. Does anybody else die a little inside when they read the back of the box for some e.g. Harry Potter game and see "Explore Hogwarts(tm) with Harry Potter(tm)(sm)(C), Ron Weasley(tm), Hermione Granger(tm), and all the other Gryffindor(tm) characters you know and love!"?]]>May 20th 2007 9:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/
I hope he starts mass producing this sometime, it would be very cool to see him steal business from the big companies. ]]>May 20th 2007 11:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/May 20th 2007 1:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/
Much less tong tangling!]]>May 20th 2007 2:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/http://www.engadget.com/2007/05/19/inventor-takes-aim-at-velcro-with-his-slidingly-engaging-fasten/
If he ever wants to actually sell this stuff, he's going to have to set aside any stubbornness about the name and let the people who actually know how to market things (which he clearly doesn't know how to do) the freedom to come up with a name consumers will actually remember and not be annoyed to speak.

Loosen up, Leonard. Let the experts figure out the name.

And best of luck. Looks like a great product.]]>May 21st 2007 5:01AM
