Power company came out today and replaced the old mechanical meter with the
new fancy-schmancy one.


Chatting up the meter-man, I learned:


1. The old meters are going to be junked. Not sold to Mexico or Lithuania
like the 'phone company did with their mechanical central office stuff.
We're talking, oh, one million meters in a city of 5.5 million. That's a
pretty big pile.


2. His quota is 60-100 meters swapped out per day.


3. One purpose is to allow the meter to be read from the street.


4. It is alleged I can check my meter on the 'net. We'll see.


I view Smart Meters with the same suspicion that I have for
OnStar. Perhaps I'm just paranoid? Aluminum foil hats don't
work, it's already been tried.

YES
BUT HAVE YOU TRIED GROUNDING YOUR TIN HAT
USE A 14awg STRANDED CONDUCTOR WHEN YOU USE IT [:-)]

RAM hats work much better and can be quite stylish too!
My favorites are EM shield undergarments.

I am not a dirt-bag, I am a bag of mostly water, the outer space
alien told me so. 9-)

Dirt is in the mind of the beholder, of course, you must first
have a mind which is something single celled life forms lack. 8-)

IT IS EASY TO DEDUCE *THAT YOU ARE MOSTLY FARMLAND DIRT
THE FLOATING MITOCHONDRIA IN THE SWAMP WATER THAT IS IN YOU IS DOING
ALL THE THINKING FOR YOU


DRINK LOTS OF *COCONUT JUICE AND FLUSH YOURSELF CLEAN
BEFORE THE MEN IN WHITE COATS COME GET YOU TO GIVE YOU A LOBOTOMY


I'LL PUT IN A GOOD WORD FOR YOU
BUT YOU HAVE TO CLEANSE YOURSELF AND STOP ADVISING PEOPLE
IN THE WAYS OF OLD COUNTRY WINE AND MOONSHINE
