Hmmm. I thought I was the only person who had this idea. Actually, I have
been using 3m's removable magic tape, which comes in a blue box. The number
is either 810 or 811, but I don't think it is called Post-It tape, and
doesn't cover anything up. You can write on it easily with pen or pencil,
and the lines on the label show through. Or you can use the nice white Kao
diskettes as-is if you can write without lines :-> Like the Post-it tape,
the stuff is removable but hasn't come off on its own.

This is also the only sort of tape the custodians around here let us use to
stick notes on doors. Notes posted with other tapes get trashed. How they
tell the difference between removable and 'permanant' magic tape is
beyond me.
