Lobster Anyone?
Some foods are more difficult to eat than
others. Can you imagine the first person to eat a
lobster? He must have been brave. Even
today — millions of years after that first
taste — some people can't bring themselves to
crack open the bright red animal on their plate.
Pity — the white meat hiding underneath is deli-
cious.
Lobsters are difficult to eat because their bones
are on the outside — they have what's called an
exoskeleton. Imagine how difficult it would be to
move if your skin were made of bone! Lobsters
have 10 legs, so they get along just fine. People
who eat lobster need special tools to get through
the hard exoskeleton.
You could say that lobsters are left
handed — their left claw is much larger than
their right. If you're ever handling a live lobster,
this is the claw to watch out for. It's called a
"crusher" and that should give you a fair idea of
what it can do. Many people wisely tape this claw
shut.
There are several types of lobsters, just as
there are several types of dogs. The lobsters we
eat are called "Homarus Americanus" and are
found in the salty ocean water off the east cgast.
This type of lobster is the St. Bernard of lobsters.
The largest Homarus in the world weighed
19.25kg and is on display in the Boston Museum of
Science.
Fishermen catch lobsters in traps, or pots that
are dropped over the side of Cape Islander boats.
The lobsters crawl in and are kept alive until just
before eating. Lobsters can last up to 24 hours out
of the sea if they're kept cool. Many lobster res-
taurants have salt water aquariums to keep lob-
sters alive in.
Despite their unusual appearance on a plate,
lobsters are delicious. Go to your nearest lobster
restaurant and get cracking.

Clinton accident
ca uses $3,400 damage
The Goderich OPP
reported one accident in the
Clinton area last week in
which a Goderich man
escaped with only minor
injuries.
On August 27, Donald
Goddard, 45, of Goderich
was travelling north of
Holmesville on Highway 8
when his vehicle crossed the
road --swerved back, and
crashed into the ditch before
stopping in a corn field.
Damage to the vehicle was
estimated at $2,000.
Clinton Police Chief Lloyd
Westlake reported that a
single car crash resulted in
$3,400 in damage on August
18.
A car driven by Earl
Flynn, 23, of RR 4 Clinton
was southbound on Victoria
Street when it veered across
the road and slammed into a
fire hydrant. Mr. Flynn was
uninjured but damage to the
car amounted to $1,600 and
$1,800 to the hydrant.
On August 27 a 1980
Chevrolet station wagon,
owned by Jim Fitzgerald
was stolen from his James
Street home. Keys were left
in the ignition.

Backyard chefs who cook
with propane barbecues
should check to make sure
their propane cylinders are
safe.
Ontario's propane code re-
quires that 20- and 40- pound
cylinders commonly used for
barbecues and other camp-
ing appliances must be in-
spected at least every ten
years. The date of manufac-
ture or the most recent in-
spection is stamped on the
raised collar that protects
the cylinder valve.
Propane filling attendants,
who must hold a certificate
issued by the Fuels Safety
Branch of the Ontario
Ministry of Consumer and
Commercial Relations, have
been reminded of the impor-
tance of regular inspections.
If an inspection is past due,
or the cylinder has large
dents, gouges or is badly cor-
c ' t fs eware
roded, it is illegal for the at-
tendant to fill the cylinder.
John Patterson, Director
of the Fuels Safety Branch,
warns that a faulty cylinder
could leak propane. If ig-
nited, the escaped propane
can cause serious injury or
property damage.
"To play it safe, con-
sumers should personally
check the date on their
cylinder," says Patterson.
"If the inspection is overdue
or there is any doubt about
the condition of the cylinder,
it should be taken to one of
the many propane dealers
who have employees
authorized to make in-
spections."
Inspections cost about $15,
and include replacement of
the pressure relief valve.
Patterson stresses three
keys to the safe handling of

f
propane: Never keep pro-
pane cylinders inside a
house or garage. Escaped
propane is heavier than air
and will settle in a low area
where it may be ignited by a
chance spark. Propane
cylinders should be
transported in an upright
position in a well -ventilated
part of the car. To check for
leaks, connect the cylinder
to the barbecue, apply a soap
and water solution to connec-
tions and lines and turn on
ro
the cylinder valve. If bub-
bles ap . ar, close the valve
until repairs have been
made.
