Does anyone know who would possess the complete lack of taste needed to
buy such things?
I have only seen them in ethnic takeaways and restaurants, and mostly
back in the 1970s.

Absolutely agree - I wouldn't part with money for one. Just interested in
how they work, so that I can see if I can build one. At least it will be a
DIY taste fail - I'm of the Readers Digest Manual and Alternative London
school of DIY so taste is compromised anyway :-)

Which are (were?) also used for measuring cows. Seriously.

Can't remember the details but something like projecting two sets of
fine lines onto a cow - the resulting moire fringes highlighted the
shape of a cow.

Hypothyroidism is a seriously debilitating condition with an insidious
onset.
Although common it frequently goes undiagnosed.
