Here's a little more of the offworld Deutsche-spam that I've been receiving lately.

A scale? A Morse code transmitter? A miniscule dual trampoline set?
Whatever it is, it ought to have wheels.

Looks like a hot plate warmer thing-y-ding.

I think Kris's guess fits best, but I thought people only cooked on dinky hotplates if they couldn't afford a stove or didn't have the money for an apartment with a kitchen. So who'd pay for a fancy designer one? Apart from the obvious answer of course: aliens.

An extra burner, or two, comes in very handy when you are cooking for a large audience and need to boil more pots. Tom's sister has something along that line for when she CANS ("puts up peaches" as she calls it) in the summer. I guess you need to boil a lot of things all at once when you 'can'. Lord only knows what aliens would boil with extra burners. Humans?

Humans, Kris? But it's Halloween. What if at this very moment there's an alien with extra burners right behind me? Arrrrgggghhhhhh!
