As long as the blood sucking utilities are still in existence, we'll never go green and this is all hyperbole !

Whether the utilities are using solar, geo-thermal, wind, gas or oil we still get exponential rate hikes every six months !

Energy independence means that I have my utility in my back yard.
We don't even have net metering in Ok. AEP/PSO charges over $1000.00 for a two way meter ! They will buy my energy for $0.0089 per KwH and sell it back to me for $9.00 per KwH.
Until you do something about the no good sorry bastards that run, and the boards that regulate the utilities, you're pissing up a rope, and you are as culpable as they are !
\All you psudo-do-gooders can just pound sand !

Utility Prices

The gentleman who said:
"Whether the utilities are using solar, geo-thermal, wind, gas or oil we still get exponential rate hikes every six months! Energy independence means that I have my utility in my back yard."
He is so right. I have technology that is more advanced since 1979. My device is a The Self-Sustained Generator. It uses no fuel or outside input. Nor any of the natural renewable resources mention above. Self-Sustained. Self-Contained. But up to now I haven't got anyone to fund it or take a serious look at it.
So, I've started Sustained Energy Systems to get it done thru raising funds in other eco-friendly areas which are: Sustainable technology, community development and education. If anyone wants to join me. Please contact me, williamgharris@aol.com, ph:816-446-5657 Passion and Determination are the only requirements.

yeah, I know the utility companies and their corroborators, the "commissions", are evil. I'm gonna build their PV arrays and watch carbon get taxed, then build some more arrays, and watch the prices of a kWh go way up, then install conservation. I sure am not going to work at Come & Go and try to save up for a solar hot water heater.

More FOCUS please !

If we freak out, then our message shall not be heard.

The utilities do what they do because WE allow it. Surely your utility can't sell you $9/kWh electricity. Easy there cowboy! What measures have you done in your home to cut your consumption? Have you taught anyone about how to shrink carbon footprint? By the way, pseudo is a loaded word, so in the very least . . . let us spell it right. Now, do you want change? How much energy do you use each billing cycle? What is your profile oil/natgas/elec/solar/etc? Have you done a site specific analysis to see what YOU can do? Let's not obscure the goal with ranting.

More and more medication-delivery patches are being made available. The residue of these get into our landfills and water sources and are polluting those who are getting these substances into their systems.
  Can some smart company or organization come up with a way to safely collect and destroy them, please!
