The problem with "Holes" is that it is used for many things and is only
marginally descriptive. How about something like one of the following:
2637.DAT Technic Axle 16 with End Pin Sockets
2637.DAT Technic Axle 16 with End Pin Socket Holes
"Pin Socket" seems more descriptive to me than Hole. Hole is used for holes
in Studs, for holes that accept a standard rod diameter, and for Pin
Sockets. I'd like to see the naming get away from the use of "hole".
And while I'm preaching, I'd love to see the 'Hole/Holes' designation
changed to something more descriptive, like One Pin Socket, or Two Pin
Sockets. Specifically:
2444.DAT Plate 2 x 2 with Hole
2817.DAT Plate 2 x 2 with Holes
be changed to something more like\
2444.DAT Plate 2 x 2 with One Pin Socket
2817.DAT Plate 2 x 2 with Two Pin Sockets
OK, I think I'm done ranting now :)

| (...) I agree with that. It would be a lot more sensible. And I like the original names for the Link Chain/Tread pieces. So, what do we like? with End Links / Holes / End Connectors? Or is there a nomenclature even more apt out there? -- Terry K -- (26 years ago, 6-Mar-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
