Maybe I’m getting to that age where I start a lot of sentences with, “Back in the day …”. Or maybe everyone’s gotten so upside-down with engineered solutions and mitigating liability that we can’t just resort to the hacks that we devised before there was a Coverdome solution. But back in the day, we used 3 oz. Dixie cups.
