Re. Juice instructins

[Geoff Hart <geoff-h -at- MTL -dot- FERIC -dot- CA>]

     Mike Thompson asked how to open his juice box, which is about as
     off-topic as you get. Then again, maybe Mike wanted us to show him how
     to write instructions for this process, which would be on-topic for
     the list. <grin> Thus:

     1. If you do not already own a pitcher or other vessel suitable for
     storing refrigerated juice, purchase one now.  Models that have been
     tested for compliance with frozen juice standard ISO-1000 are listed
     in Appendix 3. At the same time, purchase a thermos that meets the
     same ISO standard. Compatible models are listed in Appendix 8.
     2. Purchase a can of frozen juice (e.g., apple, orange, etc.).
     Caution: the instructions on the can will identify the required
     volumetric capacity of the pitcher required for safe (i.e., non-spill)
     storage of the final juice solution. Exceeding this capacity will
     result in spillage and possible health risk due to slippage on the wet
     floor. Mildew and invasions by ants may also result.
     3. Follow the instructions in Appendix 7 to prepare the juice
     solution. Store the juice solution in the refrigerator to avoid
     spoilage.
     4. Before leaving for work, remove the Juice-Pak (TM) unit from your
     lunch box and replace it in the fridge. At the same time, remove the
     pitcher of juice solution produced in step 3.
     5. Open the thermos carefully, setting aside the caps where they won't
     be lost or damaged.
     6. Place the thermos on a level surface of a height such that you can
     see inside the thermos while decanting the juice solution. Failure to
     do so may result in overfilling and subsequent spillage.
     7. Fill the thermos with juice solution, leaving 1 cm space below the
     rim of the thermos to provide room for expansion and to permit the cap
     to seal properly. Failure to do so may result in spills.
     8. Reseal the thermos. Appendix 11 provides full details on the
     appropriate tools (e.g., a torque wrench) to ensure that you hav
     created a correct and leak-proof seal.
     Note: This procedure is more cost effective and environmentally
     responsible approach than the use of landfill-consuming juice packs of
     various manufactures.

     <GRIN> And yes, that borders on terrible techwhirling, but I didn't
     have time for the usual usability testing and editing.
