excerpt
A grandmother aged 95 was threatened with prosecution after putting a plastic butter tub in the wrong recycling bag.
Relatives of the woman say she was left horrified by the 'scary' legal notice, which they claim could have triggered a heart attack.
Her granddaughter, Karen Walters, 42, said: 'It is scary and ridiculous - she is a really law-abiding citizen. If she had seen the warning, she would have had a heart attack

'But luckily her son spotted it before she saw it. The fact is that a 95-year-old was threatened with prosecution. She was horrified when she was told about it.'

Bits and pieces I got from a radio show yesterday. So it may not be FACT or not quite accurate...you know...kindda Dan Ratherish.
Charlotte NC put out new garbage bins with 'chips' in them to track garbage....a loop hole in the law/rules allowed folks to return them if they didn't want to participate.....most returned them.
Obama has placed 4 billion dollars in play for electric companys to replace your electric meter. The purpose is to gather info and in the future give absolute control of everything in your home....they can turn off any appliance in the home at any time...England has already started this to reduce 'carbon emmissions'. This program (the meters) have already been installed in a few areas but have been used to gather info only so far.

Our power company offered and "energy saving thermostat" that they would control. It was voluntary and I don't know of anyone that took them up on it.
