Hi Dale,
DS> That sounds like what we call a spork:-}}
RH> A spork has teeth just on the front end, about 3 or 4 of them, and is
RH> about the size of a dessert fork. This gadget is about 3, maybe 4
RH> inches long, the bowl of it is round and is maybe 1" across, with teeth
RH> all the way around it. Definatly not a spork; I've seen and used enough
RH> of those things in my life time to know the difference. A spork may do
RH> the job; I've never tried it but now that you've planted the idea in my
RH> head......(G)
DS> Dave published a link to a picture, but that only had teeth on one
DS> side. I now see why your device is not a spork.
Did you ever see the movie Wall-E? It's more of a kid's movie, put out
by Pixar Studios (now a part of Disney). In the movie, this little robot
collects all sorts of stuff left over from a ruined planet Earth. He
comes across a spork and has a hard time trying to figure out if he
should classifly it as a fork or a spoon. I forget what he finally
decides but just that little snippet of the story is probably the
funniest part of the movie.
