Default Smart meter? Not by the hair of my chinney-chin-chin!

"From his home in Bowdoinham, Maine, the helicopter pilot and
environmental activist is leading opposition to digital electrical meters
being installed by the local utility, Central Maine Power. The new
devices, which use wireless radios to transmit data about electricity
consumption, are touted as a critical component of a more intelligent
electrical grid. With smart meters, consumers could track the price of
electricity in real time, and utilities could lay off tens of thousands of
meter readers."

He contends his meter emits dangerous radiation (along with cell phones,
microwave ovens, and internet routers) and wants it gone.

YAH !
The hair up his nose might curl from all the radiation.
