Smart Meter Status in California – Good and Bad

The Smart Meter Fight in California is not going well but there are some very credible people continuing to push the issues and I believe they will make gains in the near future.  I hope.

We, in BC Canada must pay attention to what is going on in California.  They are fighting the same battles as we are and we may learn something from their wins and losses.

See comments by JEROMY JOHNSON  on his web site http://www.emfanalysis.com

Also, see the actions of the president of the CPUC (California Public Utilities Commission and a judge that have upheld the rights of the utility companies over the public.

An excellent article that all of you should read.   It is only 15 pages with some interesting diagrams. As Jeromy stated, it seems that the commissioner and law judge are living in an alternate universe.

Example of content of this article.  New info for me at least.  Something to follow up on.

Dirty Electricity – by Dr. Samuel Milham

Dirty Electricity - book cover

When Thomas Edison began wiring New York City with a direct current electricity distribution system in the 1880s, he gave humankind the magic of electric light, heat, and power;

in the process, though, he inadvertently opened a Pandora’s Box of unimaginable illness and death.

Dirty Electricity  (DE) tells the story of Dr. Samuel Milham, the scientist who first alerted the world about the frightening link between occupational exposure to electromagnetic fields and human disease.

Milham takes readers through his early years and education, following the twisting path that led to his discovery that most of the twentieth century diseases of civilization, including cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and suicide, are caused by electromagnetic field exposure.

In the second edition, he explains how electrical exposure does its damage, and how electricity is causing  our current epidemics of asthma, diabetes and obesity.

Dr. Milham warns that because of the recent proliferation of radio frequency radiation from cell phones and towers, terrestrial antennas, Wi-Fi and Wi-max systems, broadband internet over power lines, and personal electronic equipment, we may be facing a looming epidemic of morbidity and mortality. In Dirty Electricity, he reveals the steps we must take, personally and as a society, to coexist with this marvelous but dangerous technology.

(I just copied the above from the Amazon web site)

———————————————————————–

Wow,  I just purchased Dirty Electricity and read it all in one reading.  I found it engrossing and I think it will change my life.  Here are some of the main nuggets of information that I have dug out of this great book:

Dirty Electricity exists on all 60 Hz power,  mostly low amplitude but some extremely high and thus dangerous.

There is a a well proven relationship between Dirty Electricity and cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and suicide,  Dr Milham details his detective work in finding first cancer clusters and then the Dirty Electricity that caused the cancers.

The power and communications industries do not want to know about Dr Milham’s findings and use their financial muscle to prevent him in many cases to fix the problems and then to publicize the findings.  In public hearing the Industry brings in high paid “experts” to say that there is no problem.  These expert either are stupid and do not know anything  or quite smart for accepting daily fees of $1,500 for their work and false testimony.  And, these fees are usually paid by the Power company who simply add the costs on to their operating costs which are paid for by the customers.  A no win/no win for the citizen/consumer.

Dr Milham found cancer clusters in various schools and found the source of the Dirty Electricity that caused the cancers and showed the school management how to fix the problem.  But in many cases the administration did not believe the science and thus did not fix the problem.  And so it seems that more teachers, and students were exposed to Dirty Electricity and the resulting increase in chances of cancer, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and suicide.

Dr Milham has worked closely with Stetzer Electric and promotes the use of their Dirty Electricity filters.  This is just Dr Milham finding the DE problem and Stetzer providing a fix.

Note –  Normal DE as measured by the Stetzer filters is 50 G/S units.   Dr Milham has measured DE as high as 20,000 G/S units.  And of course there were many health problems associated with these sites.

What to do?

1 – Purchase (or Borrow) the book and read it cover to cover.  I found it quite readable.  And it is not that expensive – $15 or less.  If you believe that Dr Milham is correct in his findings,  then you will know what you have to do.

2 – Measure the DE – Purchase (or borrow) a Stetzerizer meter and measure the DE in your house and other work spaces.  Test especially in areas where there might be lots of power transformers or near-by cell towers.

3 – Install DE Filters – If you have elevated Stetzer G/S reading,  say 250 or more, then purchase 10 – 20 filters to eliminate most of the DE.  This may cost $200-$300 but also may decrease your chances of cancer and related health problems.   Note that there are other manufacturers of DE filters.  Do your due diligence about what is best to get and go for it.  Lots of stuff on the web.

 

 

Class Action Lawsuit – Current Status

This newsletter is to bring you up to date on the current status of the Class Action Civil Lawsuit against BC Hydro, to inform you of the court timeline for submissions and court hearings, and to let you know we are going to need every one of you who believes in justice, truth and freedom to keep supporting this lawsuit with your time, effort and valuable donations!

 We cannot allow ourselves to be divided and conquered, so we are asking as we never have before that you get on board with this lawsuit and keep it alive, so we will have the chance of winning back our rights, no matter which political party is in power.

WEMO is a system that allows users to control home electronics from anywhere.

WEMO is a series of products from Belkin International, Inc. that allows users to control home electronics from anywhere.  This appears to be a subset of home automation.

WEMO is just an example of the whole new world of devices, with IP addresses that can communicate on the internet and that includes the home WiFi.

Benefits?

To most people this sounds like a great advance with many benefits. Think of the time they could save by having control over home devices from your office, on the road,  out of town.

Imagine turning the coffee maker in the kitchen on when you wake up and are still in bed.  Wow.  And turning the lights on the driveway off at 10 pm,  automatically.  Or giving you an SMS message at sunset with the current temperature?   The geeks will really love this stuff.
See this site that proposes that you might use a motion detector to turn the fan or aircon on when the cat uses the cat toilet. No kidding. see this article from Australia

Down Side?

There is a growing segment of the population that believes that RFR (radio frequency radiation or microwave radiation) causes health problems. (RFR has not been proven to be Safe)  Some of these people are quite sensitive to RFR and must avoid areas with RFR from WiFi routers,  Cell towers,  cell phones and wireless smart meters otherwise they have health problems.

So, this addition of more devices talking to each other and a controller using WiFi RFR will simply increase the level of impact on the health of all people in the area.

The WiFi RFR has a limited range of 50-100 feet which you can check out with your smart phone connection to WiFi. This means people living in a condominium or an apartment with neighbours on 2 or 3 or 4 sides and upstairs and downstairs, each with several WiMo gadgets will be exposed to lots of RFR.

If you believe that living in an environment with high RFR is not good for your health and should be regarded as toxic,  THEN you must try to avoid these new WiFi gadgets like the WiMo.  Also, you should read all there is about the health effects and what you must do because the health you save may be your own or that of your family or friends.

The companies that are developing these toxic items have spent a lot of money on the R and D and they expect to make lots of money from the people who buy into this wireless home automation world.  So expect to see an increasing flood of these devices,  lots of advertising and lots of claims that RFR poses no health impacts.

“Microwaves, Science and Lies” Documentary Reveals a Product Defense Strategy

Introduction to the Documentary Film

Waves DVD Jacket. Front“When business leads research, can we still trust science?”

For the past ten years worldwide, questioning on the safety of mobile phone antennas has been increasing.  Numerous scientific studies have revealed the adverse effects of electro- magnetic waves on health.  Yet, most health agencies, industry representatives, and a portion the scientific community claim that current health standards adequately protect the public.

Critical Problem with ‘Smart’ Meters: The Switching-Mode Power Supply (SMPS)

 

DE (dirty electricity) is the low frequency (1 Hz to 60 kHz) electrical noise in the wiring of a house that radiates throughout the house.

DE has been found to have health impacts on people exposed to it and there are devices that some purchase to decrease this damage.

Smart Meters and other modern devices create DE when they change the high voltage to lower voltage.  Great technology but it has a very sinister downside.

Here is an interesting article published in 2011 that details the problems of DE from Smart Meters.    It even suggests that California, as well as all other jurisdictions will suffer huge financial troubles in the near future with falling real-estate prices and huge law suits.

WiFi – A Thalidomide in the Making by Barrie Trower – September 2013 – http://ec.europa.eu/health/scientific_committees/emerging/docs/emf_117.pdf

Remember Thalidomide?

Now the problem is WiFi and related radio frequency radiation

“Schoolgirls exposed to low-level microwave radiation (Wi-fi) are at risk of suffering stillbirth, foetal abnormalities or genetically damaged children, when they give birth.”
“Any genetic damage may pass to successive generations.”

 

Wi-Fi – A Thalidomide in the Making. Who Cares? by Barrie Trower Report – September 2013:

 

 OMG, If this is true then the next several generations are going to be damaged beyond repair.

Olle Johansson, in an video interview several months ago, said that our civilization has at most 2 generations to survive.
