[BlindTlk] getting my own milk

[Aaron Spears]

Hi.


So maybe the solution here is to get a pack of the small single serve 
ones. Although it should not be impossible to pour as the rest of you 
have been saying. Just need a finger down in the cup and might need to 
pour a little faster to help keep it from running down the side of the 
carton.


You can usually use hearing to figure out if something is full yet, but 
I think milk is probably too thick and would be too quiet?
