David,

Nice, I will have to pass this terminology around in the family. My 
nephew who spent a summer working w/ us would read the manuals. He did 
not understand why I made such a big deal of it, encouraging him to do 
it, and handing him all the instructions and manuals that we came 
across. I learned a whole lot from him saying, "No, no, it says to do this."

Our water heater by the time we became engaged with it did not have a 
manual... maybe I can find one on eBay.
