Yes, I suggested this almost a year ago and I don't believe anyone
acknowledged it.  I can't say whether it did more than right side up but it
sure made sense to me to do it that way.  I put from 8 to 10 drops (almost
filling) each hole.  It is hard to keep track so bring a pencil down there
with you and get comfortable.  Careful for fumes.

Glenn.
