Origin of name
[edit]I have no source, but I always thought the name of this device came from the term to police an area, ie, to pick up all the trash in that area. Nothing to do with law enforcement, but rather the name of the device where you can police the bottom of your flask to get everything out. 2601:640:8880:2DF0:A590:F552:81F7:DB6C (talk) 02:23, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
