Question about the grill next to the bed plate on Amberolas

[phonogfp]

I found at patent No.946,442 on line and tried comprehending the legal speak to no avail.

back to fantasy...
The boss gave me a hardy pat on the back for my imagination.
He said, he imagines a raise too.

James.

...Then the boss says,

"Say James, I was reading that U.S. Patent number nine-four-six-four-four-two, and I found that all that separate compartment stuff was spelled out in Claims four through fourteen, and then again in Claim seventeen! Now ain't that a caution? Believe you me!"

James replies,

"Boss, I've gotta tell you: all that legalese just makes my eyes glaze over..."

Whereupon the boss exclaims,

"James my boy - that reminds me - I've been meaning to ask you if you wouldn't mind a new plushy office with incandescent lamps instead of these blasted CFLs that make everyone's eyes glaze over! I've been worried about you, son, believe you me! A little raise wouldn't do you any harm either; believe you me!"

Seriously, I've never see a lamp that size. Lighthouse?

I thought about adding cloth to my top grill, but decided not to. I dont want to risk the cloth falling in and somehow jamming my motor.
