Hi Chris, I guess some of the "WINGNUTS" ;-) you had there in Santa Fe must have escaped to Canada in fear of the "radiation!" Because our BC HYDRO are in the process of installing "SMART METERS" throughout the province and the wingnuts are like howling wolves about every ailment had by mankind due to the "Secret Police" meters able to read their every thought due to the transmissions. However most of these crazies have a cell phone stuck to the side of their heads most of the day and never relate to "what maybe or not happening inside their empty skulls?" I'm surpised none of these fruit cakes haven't been screaming about what happens to their bodies while sitting in front of a computer 8 hours a day or more. Again if anything? Me? Hell live and let live, if the meters are proven to be more efficient, then get on with life. Imagine if these whackos were around at the time of the first auomobile and air pollution? We'd all still be riding horses and or a couple hitched to a wagon. I was recently at a get together of guys and one of them happened to get onto the meter thing and he was adamant we were going to have hundreds, if not thousands of people die due to the radiation emitted by "THESE INFURNAL THINGS!" Another broke it up with the news comment he had just seen on TV that "for real Martian Spaceships had been detected headed toward Earth" by a "SMART METER READING!" sent to the main hydro station. That kind of ended the stupid comments immediately about "Smart Meters!" :-) cheers, ted
