(...) I always thought a Catharine wheel was 8 sided, like a stopsign--I was told that those little 8 sided windows usually on the 2nd storey of small brick houses built in the 30's-40's were called 'Catharine windows'. Of course, all this is (...) (20 years ago, 4-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
