Despite the turmoil of having our electricity disconnected on February 19th, and being embroiled in dispute with our local utility company, the show must go on! We’ll be taking Stop Smart Meters! and the Take Back Your Power film on tour starting March 28th. I’ll be riding the rails through 16 states, stopping in Colorado, North Carolina, Georgia, and Florida to speak to groups about resisting “smart” meters, screening the film Take Back Your Power, and advising on the most effective ways to organize in your local area. These states are home to some of the worst-behaving utility companies in the country, but also burgeoning resistance movements. This should be fun!
If your area is not on the list, and you are interested in a visit, please drop us a line. We are working with Josh del Sol, producer of Take Back Your Power and some local Stop Smart Meters! groups to plan an extended tour in late June. This is a good opportunity to rally the public, gain media exposure and increase awareness of the hazards of “smart” meters in your area.
Here are the details & dates for the WhistleStop Smart Meters! Take Back Your Power screening/talk series March 28th- April 5 2014- please spread the word!

We are so excited – and honored – to have you here in Georgia, Josh! Savannians refused “smart” meters by the hundreds, and will be eager to hear what you have to say, and so see the movie.
My email, to reiterate what’s above is: info@stopsmartmetersGeorgia.org. We welcome all inquiries about “Spy and Fry” meters, and, of course, our Stop Smart Meters Savannah shindig. 🙂
