Smart meters won't be compulsory #1 Smart Meters
Which probably means "not yet" knowing these liars like we do.
OFFICIAL: Smart meters won't be compulsory http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/02..._meters_yesno/ So-called 'smart meters' will not be mandatory, the energy minister has confirmed. The pledge was made by Charles Hendry last Thursday, and confirmed to us by the Department of Energy and Climate Change today. The energy minister in the previous Labour government, one Ed Miliband, introduced legislation to make smart meters mandatory for homes and small and medium-sized businesses by 2014 as part of the condition for licensing energy companies. The electronic devices must collect information every 30 minutes, and use wireless chips to phone home. The cost per household, including installation, was estimated at £340 per household, or £9bn countrywide, with customers footing the bill. The advantages for suppliers are considerable: laying off thousands of employees, including meter readers and call centre staff, introducing per-minute variable pricing, and cutting off the energy supply remotely. It also promised a boom for the IT sector. But Hendry told the House of Commons that: We believe that people will benefit from having smart meters, but we will not make them obligatory. If people are concerned about the electromagnetic issues, they will not be required to have one. We have been willing to give assurances to Hon Members on that account. A DECC spokesman told us: This is not actually new. While smart metering brings significant benefits, it will not be an offence for householders to refuse to accept a smart meter and we have made it clear that we do not expect suppliers to seek an entry warrant simply to fit smart metering equipment.

If they install a smart meter outside Andy's abode will it make his posts more comprehensible?

Here's it's $75 to opt out, and $10 a month to send some one out to read the meter....should improve their profits overall.

Aren't they simply a way for the utility companies to monitor energy usage without sending a meter reader man around once a month; with the added advantage (to the utility companies) that they can turn off your power with the simple push of a button from their office, without having to go out and physically disconnect your home from the power-grid? |

Laptops and wireless keyboards, modems etc are even worse, reducing spermcounts by a quarter and more, and what sperm remains is unhealthy and dysfunctional, after only a couple hours. This must logically also affect women. 24 hours per day exposure to massive doses is probably why cancer rates are skyrocketing, and why White birthrates are plummetting. They have in some cases begun installing bar code readers on these meters, so they can read the barcodes on all the products you buy, and via temp readings, they can tell how many people are in each house, and where they are. These are a godsend to criminals, who can now know when you are home, what you are doing. http://www.fertstert.org/article/S00...678-1/abstract http://news.menshealth.com/protect-m...rm/2011/12/06/ http://www.telegraph.co.uk/health/he...-suggests.html http://news.menshealth.com/breaking-...rm/2011/08/16/ http://www.menshealth.com/mhlists/be...ng/printer.php Cellmasts destroy vegetation, bees are dying and so destroying agriculture, bird eggs don't hatch much anymore, leading to a massive increase in insect infestation and disease as bird populations plummet. Our food is genetically modified to be sterile and even insects won't eat GM fruits and vegetables. Powerlines are causing leukemia and organ and digestive disorders on a massive scale. The war against humanity is hotting up. Maybe these methods of shielding can help, though beware of fire. Foil protects against microwaves. Maybe if you can, also put something up on the wall inside, and put a picture or something over it, so it isn't noticeable.You should have something like foil between you and whatever wireless equipment you use, I've gone back to wired mouse and keyboard, don't carry a cellphone on my person anymore, and my PC is about 2 metres from me now. http://electricsense.com/2431/smart-...hielding-tips/

"They" installed a smart meter at my house about eight months ago.
So far, I'm not hearing any radio broadcasts in my head, nor am I foaming at the mouth. But my dog has peed on the carpet a couple of times. Do you think there's any correlation here? |

Seems like a job-eliminator and a money-saver for the power company - no more meter-readers to pay. A bit ike the self-checkout lanes they installed (and later removed) at Wal-Mart. The company thought that they could get by cheaper by not paying as many cashiers to run the checkout lines. Apparently too many people were slipping items into their bags unscanned and the self-checkouts were eventually removed. |

Mine is similar to these: http://theowl.com/ you attach one bit to your meter and plonk the other bit where you can see it. Then when you switch something on - you can see the consumption in actual money terms over a period of your selection. For instance, if I run my instant hot water kettle for an hour, it would cost me £26 something per day. We have those self-checkouts here but everything has a barcode bleeper so alarms sound as you leave the shop. I don't mind them (though I do question why I'm paying the same price as someone who is using a cashier and a packer) and they're bloody annoying if you have a money off coupon or something and it shrieks for assistance because it doesn't recognise it, or when you have a blu-ray or alcohol or other age related item (like Christmas crackers!) and it again sets off the bell for assistance.

I hate the fact that the American government has this incentive program that pays half of the employees wages if their employer hires someone who is either mentally or physically disabled (its cheaper for the government, since they don't have to pay them a disability check, and cheaper for the stores because they only have to pay half their wages). Because of this scheme, stores are now staffed by a growing population of cripples and idiots who are taking up jobs at half the cost of able-bodied and able-minded workers. |
