Arthur Fry learned about a new adhesive developed by a scientist at 3M. The adhesive was designed so that it would stick to paper. When it stuck, it created a temporary bond that was not strong enough to damage the surfaces that it stuck to. Fry thought it would be the perfect adhesive to help the page markers stick in his hymnal to help him easily find hymns while he sang in his church choir.

This adhesive later became very popular when it was used to make sticky notes. Do you think Fry thought it would become that popular when he first learned about it?
