Culprit

Tonight we discovered a lot of water on the basement floor, dripping down from a radiator pipe. This was very mysterious, since it's August and we haven't turned on a radiator since March.

Paul traced the leak to the living room radiator itself, not a leaky pipe at all. The knob at the bottom of the radiator can be turned to let more or less water into the radiator, and it can be opened so far that water drips out. But who would do such a thing?

After eliminating me as a suspect through questioning, Paul asked the kids, very kindly: "You're not in trouble, I just need to know if one of you turned this knob."

Sylvia: "No, I never did."

Paul: "Levi, did you turn this knob?"

Levi: "Uh ... yeah! All the time! All the days!"

Mystery solved.
