Edison laterals is the more accurate term. There were electric Diamond Discs. ‘Thins’ is about the most annoying colloquialism that I’ve heard since ‘tiger oak’ and ‘witch’s hat horn’. Sounds like a cracker. Sorry.

But if you sent me one, it hasn't come through. Would you please resend? Or send me an e-mail; that's fine too.
