    Hi,
    I only thing I remember about Grove City is that it was a small college town on Lake Erie. I had my first trip there in 1952.

    komokwa The Truth is out there...!

    "The is a temporary handle for lifting/moving old, thin, sheet-iron cooking pans. The metal in these shallow pans is only about 1/32" thick. The single tine goes inside the pan and the double one goes on the outside."

    or so someone else thinks...on a different forum !!

    maybe we just don't rate the OP's courtesy ..........:sour:
