                     How to meaure ⅚ cup of oil, part IV

My, it's amazing how a topic I wrote about twenty years ago [1] has been
popular over the past few [2] years [3]. I just received an email from Jason
Arencibia about an even easier method of measuring out ⅚ cup of oil:

And in all the years I've looked over recipes that use Imperial measurements,
not one has ever used a sixth cup, or any multiple of a sixth cup. It just
doesn't exist in the Imperial system!
