I wonder where the name Purolator (the courier service) comes from?

Huh. So pure oil filter or something?
ReplyDeleteFrom the Purolator website: 'Purolator has been manufacturing, marketing and distributing filters since 1923. Ernest Sweetland and George H. Greenhalgh patented the first automotive oil filtration system. They called their invention “Purolator”, short for the words “pure oil later”'
