Looks like Nolan is getting ready for this year's Earth Hour on March 28th. Three times this weekend he's ratted on someone for not turning things off. Friday, he kindly let me know that Riley had left the power on for the XBox. At suppertime today, he informed me that Cameron had left the bathroom light on - which was kind of funny because Cammy wasn't even done in there. And the best one he saved for tonight. He went downstairs to let Paul know that he had left the kitchen light on. Nolan was then good enough to climb back up the stairs and turn the light off for his Dad. Could it really be that all those times I repeated the old Ontario Hydro mantra "wasting electricity turns people off", is actually paying off?

I dunno, but you're turning me off, that's fer sure.
Oh come on. Do you remember the ole 'wasting electricity' thing? Yer no fun.
No. Don't remember it.
I was singing the "Ontario" song in my head on the way home today..
"A place to stay, a place to grow, Ontari-ari-ari-o"
Ah, yes. It was a simpler time back in the 'keep it beautiful' days.
Can you tell me what the words to the song are?
