	Junkyardave That's called a rheostat; Depending on the position of the handle, it allows more or less current to flow. Similar to the volume control knob on older radios, etc.

	Junkyardave I'm trying to figure out the lighter square section in the upper right corner; The wall looks flat, except for that small section. It appears to be a different distance than the rest of the wall. Someone enlighten me, please.

	Junkyardave A calming measure....if she needs it?!? The Thorazine alone should have made her "manageable", but with Haldol AND EST? And the Lithium amplifies the others. She must have really been in bad shape. Poor lady! She was no doubt a zombie, if not out cold after this!

	Junkyardave Lubricator block. Each of these is a single lube pump, tubed to different points on the engine. The glass window would allow the operator to adjust the rate of lubrication by counting the drops of oil. The small buttons in front of each pump allowed for priming the pump. There's a long camshaft in the case below the pumps that operate each one.
