    Happened to me one night when it was sleeting and snowing and 19F. I thought the ice had something to do with it but got up, broke the ice off, re-milked the whoppies and all was good. I was rushing set up cause I was freezing my butt off and wanted my downy goddness.

    It's probably the Metric system

    I'm not sure if Amsteel is metric compliant. If you told it you were 194lbs it would probably hold better.
