Wooo, thanks! I regularly get numbers all sideways so I wondered if I was 
reading it wrong...

I put new spark plugs in my motorcycle tonight, spec'd gap is 0.024-0.028 which 
is just about as small as my gauge will do. Hadta look at the numbers several 
times to be sure it was right.

Hi Curt -
No, you're not missing anything -
 I had a brain fart - sorry - the discs are 
.750" and the lower 
limit is .787" (20mm) so they're trash now!

They are now 
paperweights. ;-)

Thx agn
