Norman,
If there was anything else I could get the grad students to use in a
dependable way, I could go for. (I tried!) However, the only workable
expedient left was to buy it out of a box.
Today (even CS) Students have trouble with the concept of using things in a
unique and unspecified way.
Most of them live mainly on prepared food, too; they have no idea what to do
with raw ingredients of any kind... :-(
