I patented, developed (and now manufacture) the first electric heating pad that is not flat... ergo, it was not a pad. So we opted to trademark it as a "Heating Pouch". However, in the advertising we refer to it as The World's First Contoured Heating Pad", but we draw a line through the word pad and pring POUCH - skewed, above the 'lined-out' pad.<br /> We hope to soon have the term "Heating Pouch" on the tips of every tongue... but in the meantime we opt for the well-known anchor.</p> Tue, 08 Jul 2008 18:59:55 -0400 William Parrish 919460 at http://www.fastcompany.com
