Her bedroom walls are plas- tered with pictures of the strangest young men wearing eye makeup. Holy moly! However, she recently got fooled when she signed up for the topic"Watts & Amps" in her science class. Thinking it had to have some- thing to do with heavy metal, she was a little dismayed to find she had to come up with a paper on how The Hydro works. But she's always been a spunky kid and good at science, too, so after a bit of typical ado- lescent overreaction-"Oh, no! I can't stand it! This is the worst thing that's ever happened to me in my whole life!" - she buckled down and told us a couple of weeks ago at dinner that she was "really getting into it." : You know, we take electricity for granted, but have you ever wondered how it's actually made? According to Belinda, it all starts when falling water or steam spins huge turbine- generators which produce electricity at about 20,000 volts including Grandfather clock, bed : . . !

Well, today she found out she got an "A" on that project. So I handed the paper back to her and asked her if, when she's an engineer, Em and I could count on her to look after us in our old age. "Oh, Dad!" she said. But she didn't say no. _ This newspaper, in conjunction with Onta- rio H dro, is bringing you Phil's Basement to help "bring home" ideas on how to save energy.
