Did You Know?
The phrase ‘To a T’ is most likely descended from the expression “to a tittle.”
So what’s a tittle?
A tittle is a small mark like the dot over an i or a j or a diacritical mark such as an accent mark. Essentially, to a T means “to the smallest detail.”

But, wait. So what’s the alternative in the plywood? It’s a 48-inch-by-96-inch plastic panel that is 80 percent lighter than plywood and lets in light, so it’s ideal for boarding up windows. Cost is about $45 to $60 per sheet.
While plastic plywood may not be helping the sustainability movement, would you use this plywood alternative? Beyond bad weather prep, how would you use it? We’d love to know.
