[Tigers] Window cleaning

[Chris Thompson]

Almost all towels you buy (except micro-fiber cloths sold for cleaning) 
have a fabric treatment leftover on them that greatly reduces their 
absorbancy, and will leave a film if using them to wash with.  You'll 
notice this with new bath towels.  Washing them twice on the rinse cycle 
with about a cup of vinegar will usually get rid of it.  One with baking 
soda helps, too.
