myself.

My favorite is the Tropicana 96 oz orange juice container. Allows for me to
drink coffee and water during the flight with little concern for overflowing
the toilet.

I always figured that there was a reason that those Gatorade bottles were
wide-mouth types... On the other hand, the color of Gatorade could make
that a bit dicey... grin

That is only 4 cups.

A cup is 5 oz. A "glass" is 8-12oz.

A cup is 8 fluid ounces. A glass is whatever the manufacturer wants it to
be.

Correct... A "cup" is a unit of measure... A glass is just an arbitrarily
sized container...

I remember bitching about my expresso maker when it claimed that it made 6
cups... It made 2 at best and I'm not even sure they were a full 8 ounces...

Well, espresso is served in those tiny little "cups", right? That's
probably what they meant.

I've got a four-cup coffee pot that makes two mugs of coffee. It's
theoretically four six-ounce cups, but it's actually closer to five ounces
each. I tried pouring water in from a measuring cup instead of using the
pot one time, and it went all over the counter.

Just about every coffee maker I can recall, has it's graduations for CUPS
being 5oz. (i.e., 12 cup variety holds 60 oz of water).
