Trying something new a Duct Tape List link

I think I have figured it out. As the collection grows people that read this blog and want to help collect rolls need to see a list of the countries I already have. The list has to be up to date. To do this I have set up a separate blog page that just lists the countries I already have signed rolls from. Now every time I post information and the story about a new roll added to the collection I will end the post with this message and link:

I will be working with the Wisconsin OM State competition again this year as the problem captain for Problem 1  Catch us if you can. The first round of training is being held Sunday, Feb. 26th at MATC in Madison. I have invited a few of my past team members to help out at the competition. It has been almost 10 years since they graduated and it will be good to get together again. They had a good time when they were participating and are excited to be back into OM again. I will be bringing them up to speed on the World Duct Tape Collection. Some of them were a part of this when I started it back in 2004 trying to collect a signed roll of Duct Tape from each of the 50 United States! 

Hello Guatemala roll #69

Just got the mail today and had a great surprise.

It came from Chi Lambda fraternity brother, Steve Kohler.

Steve picked up this roll of Duct Tape while on a mission trip in Guatemala. More on this later when he fills me in on the story.

Steve included some nice back ground photos of him getting the roll to add to the World Duct Tape Collection. I have engraved a Duct Tape coin with the country name, date and roll number for this roll and mailed it off to him. Thanks Steve and happy, safe future travels.

Also I have sent a Duct Tape coin to Apollo 13 engineer, Ed Symlie for the roll he sent me in the early days of the collection. He sent a nice note that he received the coin.

I have set a milestone goal to have country 100 in the collection by the end of this years 2017 Odyssey of the Mind World Finals. To that end I sent a coin to Jimmy Fallon and the challenge for him to add a roll to the collection. No word back yet, but will keep followers posted on progress I make.
