Just Say No to Big Brother’s Smart Meters by Orlean Koehle
Francisco and San Mateo Counties; the infamous hexavalent chromium poisoning of Hinkley in San Bernardino County, which was litigated by Erin Brockovitch.
motion picture). This is just one more incident where funds that should have been used for maintenance and public safety were diverted instead into the pockets of management.
• PG&E are putting their workers at risk: Even in the municipalities that have resolutions or ordinances against installing smart meters, and in neighborhoods with posted signs against the meters, PG&E is still sending out their workers to install the meters, in some cases asking them to violate local laws. This is putting their workers in hostile environments and in harm’s way. Is there not a health and safety provision in your local union contract, which allows you to refuse to work under such dangerous conditions?
The letter ends with a plea for all fellow union members to join them in being true to the most basic traditions of the labor union movement, which dictates “Safety First, and Injury to One is Injury to All.”
The letter asks for them to join in an immediate moratorium against the installing
of any more Smart Meters, the removal of already deployed Smart Meters, and a refusal to implement this program any more unless it is being done by technology that would shield and protect against the RF such as DSL or fiber optic cables. If the union members have any questions or would like more information they can contact Isis Feral at 510-290-6577 or e-mail him at
isisferal@yahoo.com. The letter ended with, “Let’s do what is best for our neighborhoods, not for the deep pockets of corporate CEOs.” The letter was signed by Isis Feral, a disabled rights activist, and the following union members: Barri Boone, member SEIU local 6434; Amy Coulter, member AFSCME, local 2428; Howard Keylor, retired longshoreman, member ILWU, local 10; Frank Lambert, retired teamster, member IBT, local 287; and Steve Zeltzer, Chairman, California Coalition for Workers Memorial Day. It then gave a page of websites giving the research for all of the claims they made in the letter.
Smart Meters are Affecting Hearing: (Thanks to Sandi Maurer for the following froe-mails she received from people who belong to her EMF Safety Network, Sept. 22, 2011)
David Haltom says: I was privately mentored in neuro chemistry and have an adept knowledge of brain functioning. I confronted an employee of the wellington energy services who was contracted to install the smart meters in Santa Cruz, Ca. I explained the peak audible frequency of human ears is 1-3hz. Smart meters running at 2.5hz obviously effects hearing. She gave me a horrified look and informed me that for the last 2 months she cannot hear (like her ears had been popped and wont stop ringing). She told me that there are other installers experiencing the same effects and made me promise I was not recording her as she could not afford to lose her job for what she was telling me. My ears feel pressure now and I am tingly and itchy all over my body after smart meter installation. Got all the way to PG&E top supervisor for smart meters and they could not answer any of my questions about frequency, hearing and the brain. Said there’s nothing I can do to stop the installation. HOW TO WE STOP THE METERS OURSELVES!?? THERE HAS GOT TO BE A DEVICE WE CAN BUY TO BLOCK THEM OR DISABLE THEM!? From a very upset neuro-chemist and a freedom stricken American! Let’s band together and stop this!

I’m going through difficulties now because I found a bank of 14 SmartMeters near a workspace with a loft I was going to occupy, after I had put money down. I’m unhappy with myself for not having been lucid enough to find the meters earlier. I must have been hypnotized in a microwave haze.
Because I refuse to commit myself to absolute misery, I’m backing out of the month-to-month arrangement and losing some money. What’s worse for me though is that I gave notice to move
