The original patent application clearly specifies: OVER.

I knew it!

Makes perfect sense to me.

If the roll is 'under' and you're taking some off, you might have to touch the clean unused roll to stop it spinning and get your piece.

If the roll is 'over', when you stop the rolling roll with a finger it's yanking off the bit you touched. :)

What DOESN'T make sense to me, is the 5 or 10 minute segment Fox News devoted to this subject. :)
 
Logic dictates over is the correct method.

Thanks for the link. It will come in handy some day! :D
 
Oh, I can't wait till my husband gets home! :) Over it is. It's settled!


mr. boe was already converted to the Over side prior to this discovery...but I recall one roommate from college that I'd love to show this!

It is very clear that the inventor never owned any house cats. :biggrin:

Or house rabbits. One of my bunnies used to attack the TP whenever we were careless enough to leave the bathroom door open.

Too funny, but so true on the cats! :rofl:

But, I do think it should be hung OVER, not UNDER.... and I can always tell when the hubby is the one replacing the roll...he always puts it on UNDER and I ALWAYS remind him, that he put it on wrong and it should be put in the OVER manner.....

25 years this April with him and he STILL has not got it right.... :lol:
