Trent,

What a great question! Actually, I just ASSUMED that it 
would be necessary; my reasoning was that the thin 
(0.00025 in) plastic coating on each side increases the 
thickness of the material, _and_ it is translucent. 

Now you've got me curious. Must make pinhole with 
unadulterated drink can and see what happens!

Gary
