Well, maybe there is some truth in it. I have a electronic
meter. There was a ice storm here and the meter was covered with ice
for a few weeks.
After the thaw, the power company called to ask if i was still in
business because i showed zero power use. Not sure if the ice around
it did it, but something zapped my electronic meter. I suppose now
people will be trying to freeze there meters.......

Maybe a virus.
