"Rubbing Alcohol"? "Razor Blades"? "Carts"???
What strange words you earth creatures use...

At WNNK Harrisburg in 1994, I used to have a low-flying track light in my production room with some pretty warm-running floodlights. If I propped a cassette in a lighting 'can' for about 30 seconds, the glue on the label would soften to the point where it would peel right up with the edge of a fingernail and leave nothing on the cassette.
...at least til that one day when I was distracted and forgot about one cassette which melted and sorta "blopped" out of the fixture onto my neck. Left a helluva blister.
