			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Remember our giant piece of <a href="http://www.googlesightseeing.com/2005/06/07/scotch-tape/">Scotch Tape</a> holding Canada together? Well our ever-helpful readers have since turned up several more pieces of this gargantuan sticky-tape…</p>

<p>Firstly we have <a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=6.756592,-2.856445&amp;spn=.187540,.210371&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en" class="placemark">this enormous length of tape</a>, which is actually holding Ghana and Ivory Coast together. Not high-resolution on this one, but at the eastern end the tape fades out rather prettily into some lovely clouds.</p>

<p><a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=6.756592,-2.856445&amp;spn=.187540,.210371&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en"><img src="http://media.googlesightseeing.com/wp-content/images/ghanascotchtape-attr.jpg" alt="Ghana Scotch Tape" /></a></p>

<p>Next up is this <a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=24.020920,24.222794&amp;spn=0.323410,0.506744&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en" class="placemark">semi-transparent tape</a> stitching a large section of the Libyan desert together. Notice how all of these anomalies run at very similar angles across the images?</p>

<p><a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=24.020920,24.222794&amp;spn=0.323410,0.506744&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en"><img src="http://media.googlesightseeing.com/wp-content/images/libyatape-attr.jpg" alt="Libyan Tape" /></a></p>

<p>Finally we have this <a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=53.893010,108.871765&amp;spn=1.185525,2.489227&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en" class="placemark">shoddy looking job</a> in Russia, which appears to have required two pieces of tape to get the job done! I think their mistake was trying to tape water together…</p>

<p><a href="http://googlesightseeing.com/maps?p=439&amp;c=&amp;ll=53.893010,108.871765&amp;spn=1.185525,2.489227&amp;t=k&amp;hl=en"><img src="http://media.googlesightseeing.com/wp-content/images/russiantape-attr.jpg" alt="Russian Tape" /></a></p>
