Interesting... so boiling them can make them expand too much, leaving them
for a few weeks will allow them to contract, but they "remember" their

Its not that they remember their size, it is just that they will get back
to the original tolerances. I imagine if you live someplace where the
humidity is 90+% all the time you won't have the shrinking issue at all.
