- Well, I don't know if it's wisdom, but I'll take a crack at it.

- How about putting your filters in little plastic "ziplock" bags that
- are commonly used to hold little parts. Then you are applying tape to
- something more durable. Indeed, they need not be ziplock bags if you
- have some means of sealing your gels into a plastic envelope of some
- kind. Heck! Use tape to keep the gel inside the plastic!
-
- If you use filters on the flash lots and lots, you might want to leave
- a "tab" on the plastic and attach velcro there.
-
- Does this sound at all reasonable?
