[Electronics-talk] Accessible Microwave?

Mon Aug 31 22:48:47 UTC 2015

I'm not sure "usually" makes any sense here. I've seen all kinds of 
different coffee cup lids with different ways of keeping the coffee 
inside the cup. It's pretty clear from the context here that someone is 
going to a place where they use a little sticky tab to cover the opening 
where you sip the coffee from. I've seen this myself, although not 
terribly frequently.
