We are happy to answer your question, but please remember that the Web
isn't the only source of information around. Your local public or school
library most likely has information on what you are looking for.

To get you started on a potato electricity project, go to:
http://www.skillsandcraft.co.za/pote.htm

I used Google <www.google.com> and searched on the terms:
potato
electricity

and found several sources. The one above is just one.
