Default Am I imagining this or has anyone else noticed it also.

It seems to me that during the past ten years or so patching plaster
is setting a lot faster and roofing cement is drying and cracking a
lot sooner. I?m talking about the common plaster and roofing cement
places like Home Depot sells. Did they change the formulation like
adding more lime and less oil? I mean is it just me or has anyone else
noticed these also?


My observation is that anything "new & improved" isn't. Also anything that
I
like the manufacturers will immediately stop production of.

I recently saw a frozen pizza in the grocery store boasting: "New and
Improved" and "Original Recipe" on the same package.
