No doubt everyone knows that the screw top opening for filling the water tank has an O-Ring around it that helps to seal it.

In case you didn't know a #50 O-Ring (1 5/8 x 1 7/16 I.D. x 3/32) fits like a glove.

You might also be unaware that this little rubber circle was invented by a distant Irish relative of mine: Seamus O'Ring.

Now you know the rest of the story.

Not sure about that Bob.

He may be a distant relative (we all have a bit of Irish in us somewhere) but it was invented by 'Niels Christensen'
