A friend of mine asked me where the waterpump pliers were at the shop just a couple of days ago. My dad and granddad called them that. Sometimes they're called <a href="http://www.channellock.com/acb/stores/1/Tongue_and_Groove_C3.cfm" rel="nofollow">Channellocks</a> after the prominent manufacturer of these. As far the lampholder is concerned, any U.S. electrician would know what a <a href="http://www.levitonproducts.com/catalog/model_9875.htm?sid=31D1CC6D006FD4B54417FD9BFF40C298&pid=1208" rel="nofollow">keyless</a> is. It's probably the oldest product in most electrical product manufacturer's lighting fixture line. It’s obvious you didn’t Google the handle.

Many turned without though, some preferring to make their intentions known on CB ( "Breaker one-nine; I'm fixin' to turn left" ). And there was one car ( a white, 1962 Valiant ) that had his right turn signals on for the entire 4 years I was there. Near as I can determine he bought the car with them blinking and never figured out how to turn them off.
