Probably too late for you to see this, Cathy…but the answer to your last paragraph.. I’ve got a great book on shyness right now, and there has been more research that has come out since your comment about entrainment on computers, including the military development of “war games” that carried over into the gaming industry (training future soldiers, or preparing our youth to accept perpetual war)…chemtrails is another one where the public has been entrained to see them as natural and normal, a part of the environment via advertising and childrens’ books, for example….

Exactly, the meters do not have to be wireless.

The analogy with the street cars is a good one.
I’m a traffic reporter. For nearly two decades I’ve been reporting freeway accidents for various stations in Southern California. I also drive them. You risk your life every time you get on the road, make no mistake—it’s a disaster. It’s also pathetic that when there were trolleys in this town, you could get anywhere —it was a real system of transportation for the people. Now you can’t even go from downtown to the beach. The Metro is awesome, but with very few destinations. For most folks it’s basically useless.

I’m starting to honestly wonder if nearly two decades now of behavioral conditioning on computers —ie sitting in one place typing all day every day–is disabling people from acting in real three dimensional life.
My other thought is that since the computer gives people an outlet for their frustrations via the comments sections, people get to blow off steam and don’t reach boiling point soon enough to tackle the various abuses that I’ve been seeing happen for my entire adult life.
But god knows I’m grateful for this site.

More reason we must ALL stick together here.

By now there should be MANY FB ‘spin offs’ on this ‘evil’ issue.

Yes Rhonda … I concur! We, the people, CONTINUE to STAND on it!

Right Cathy … & thanks to this website w/ALL the ‘input’ plus exposure, we’re
working on it and quite sure the utilities are ‘watching’ us here, seeing the growing number of participants from virtually all around the globe realizing
the increasing progress we are making whereby showing NO signs of ‘giving up’ til we WIN. Just maybe we can ‘ruin’ THEIR Christmas, TOO.
