As for their sentences if convited of the 'alledged charges'...how's about community service picking up goose poop along the RiverWalk...

99% of the meters are installed and now they get arrested? What's in it for either side at this point?

Yeah, it's easy to get to 99% when you disregard those that opt out by choosing the non-transmitting smart meters by calling the city and making your official request... then install a transmitting version anyway in the 10 minute window that a person leaves the house. This issue has become a joke and shows how draconian this city council has become.

In light of the Supreme Court just ruling against IL and its "eavesdropping" laws, I hope they sue the pants off the city. Yes, even as a tax payer, I want the city to get slapped for this one and hopefully the voters take notice during upcoming elections.

Another score for Big Brother. Who's Eavesdropping on who?

Good to see paranoia isn't just twin noias.

The arrest for eavesdropping was illegal. The law they were arrested under has been declared unconstitutional and the May 8 ruling by the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago that blocked enforcement of the law, I think Bendis should be able to collect a large settlement from the city for the false arrest. Clearly the officers knew the law could not be enforced.

http://news.yahoo.com/top-court-not-revisit-illinois-eavesdropping-law-215536851.html

So what. Just get the damn meters installed. What's the big deal.

And we wonder why so many citizens fear speaking up and taking a stand on controversial issues.!?!

Government intimidation and retailiation!

I hope they sue the pants off the City in Federal Court for retaliation for the exercise of their first amendment rights

what a joke. if they don't want them they shouldn't be forced to have them

These comments are the reason we are in this mess of a state and country. Personal attacks instead of education. If you want to be in a town that doesn't want to invest in technology... Move to Indiana? Really...? They are light years ahead of Illinois financially. Just get the damn meters... How's because I don't think the government local, state, or federal government should tell me what meter or monitoring of the utility i use and pay for. What's the long term impact of all of the wireless technology through the air? Why push this through so quickly? Why can't we have free will? Can't we all at least agree we should be able to make our own decisions and not forced by our government? Attack my comments. But remember these thoughts of free choice is what used to make our country great.

It is so stupid the way people consider it a freedom when its convenient. You want inexpensive reliable electricity, but also want full control of how it is provided. The only rational point made here, is if you don't want to deal with City of Naperville and their method of delivering electricity you have 3 choices:

1.) Elect people who agree with you and influence change (takes a while but could be done) Maybe you lose this issue, but you can possibly change other things in the future
2.) Do not accept electricity from the city. Find an alternative or live without power
3.) Move out

It is a free country and people elected officials decisions on their behalf. They made those decisions and it costs money and now a quite minority is now resorting to criminal action to keep the media listening. Final point democracy doesn't mean you always get your way. The women in the video agrees that it is the law but its not right. Plenty of times the laws haven't been right, doesn't give her the right to disobey them.

Upon arriving from the store with my daughter and granddaughter 2 2 trucks and I'm in front of my home. My fiancee is a commity man and has been working with these 2women on this lawsuit. W
Hen i asked them what they werer doing they replied, puttingthe smart meter on. Mind you the man who installed it ran as fas as he could to his truck and mind you he had a plastic welders mask on and the 2other men did not. I started screaming and the2men who stayed behind gave me a song and dance. I asked one of the men you did not give me the option of saying. Yes or no,he replied, we rang your door bell and there was no answer. My reply was we have no doorbells they were broke. I did some research andfound outpacific gs and electric had a part in developing this device (also known as pgand e) who is notorious for killing people). I took my info and a few days later went and spoke about this issue. Why would a city buy a product with there named even attached to it? That night recorded my speach. It is unconstitutional to tell people who voted against the smartmeter and city over turn THE VOTE. I SPOKE TO _KIM AND TOLD HER THE WHOLE STORY. I rescue wolves and teach about
The enviroment

We don't have smart meters where I live but I know someone from Naperville who's been hearing the voice of Wally Philips in his head every morning since theirs were installed!

Yesterday the Naperville Gestapo (our police force) ordered by our city manager, police chief and utility manager none of which are elected officials invaded tax paying citizens homes and properties and forcibly installed smart meters against the wishes of our home owners.(Law suits will be forthcoming)

Has Naperville sunk to this pathetic level where the police force who have sworn individually to protect and uphold the Constitution a significant part of which is private property rights and no trespassing without a court order or warrant?

If we have excess police and police superintendents who have nothing better to do then harass Naperville citizens it is time to have a significant reduction in force starting with the police chief and any officer who would disregard his oath by participating in this criminal activity.

Smart meters are nothing when compared to our freedoms and rights being trampled on by these thugs and morons. View this on Channel 2 news and see how you will feel when they invade your homes for some other nonsensical code!
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/01/23/two-naperville-women-arrested-for-trying-to-block-smart-meters/

Let's Keep The Informed Dialogue Going..Glad We Have The Patch To Express Our Opinions..Sure Easier Than Writing Letters To The NaperSun!

@Gerald it's not trespassing, when it comes to outside utilities or City owned equipment and maintenance. By the way the Police were only called to the residence after the meter installer reported a disturbance. No one needs a warrant or a court order to install the meter. Let the meters be installed, what's the big deal? Nothing!

People if you are afraid of the meters so called potential harm. Get rid of your cell phones , micro waves , computers and T.V.'s and Wi-fi's! There's your harm.

I have nothing but high praise for N.P.D. and the great job that they do for the citizens on a daily basis.

@Buford Yes, RF microwave radiation is harmful to humans.

RF Microwave radiation whether from a Smart Meter, cell phone or any other wireless device is dangerous to human health. The US Military documented the biological effects of electromagnetic radiation through numerous, now-unclassified studies. You can find a few of these below:

Here is an earlier study:

There are THOUSANDS OF STUDIES showing adverse biological effects on humans. You're welcome to view some more documentation on our website at:

"To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize." Voltaire

Does the utility have an easement to attach a 2-way transmitting, data-mining COMPUTER on your home?

The Smart Meter is more than just an electricity measuring device like the old electromechanical meters were. They provide non-stop real-time communications of the activities in your private home.

This is a MASSIVE invasion of privacy which Smart Grid proponents are fully aware of from their internal documents.

@Maureen then everyone should get rid of their cell phones and wi-fi's. We didn't have them years ago and lived w/o them, so we can live w/o them now.

I can care less if the smart meters are installed and if they monitor my usage.Get a life people!

So- I guess we should all be quiet and do as we're told?

It's actually worse than you might think. This incident is repeating itself 6000+ times across America. That's how many communities have succumbed to the UN's Agenda 21, or "sustainable" energy propaganda, i.e. they sweeten the pot with lots of $$$. Americans betraying Americans. Google Agenda 21 to see what more is coming down the pike...nasty business...Semper Fi

If you are interested in installing free energy solar panels and other energy efficient products, please check out my company website and schedule an appointment. The federal government (President OBama) is continuing to invest billiions of dollars in solar energy so why not take advantage of it. We are also Naperville residents and would love to help out our fellow neighbors!!

Dissent is as American as apple pie.....nice work ladies!!

A smart meter transmits for about 0.07% of the day.

You are exposed to far more RF radiation visiting a Starbucks, McDonalds, or any other place that has wifi - and that is continuous, not intermittent like a smart meter.

Do you realize that the computer you're using to read this forum produces far MORE radio-frequency energy than a smart meter does and that it does so continuously instead of just a few seconds every hour and that it is much closer to your body than your smart meter is?

Maureen why aren't you protesting all the cellphone towers in the city. They effect people, but you don't care because you don't live by them?

DARE TO WATCH: EXPERT ON THE DARK SIDE OF RF MICROWAVE RADIATION? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvn-8ITy0oc

Microwave Frequencies - Stealth Warfare - What you don't know about your Cell Phone, wifi, ipad, Smart Meter

This technology was fully known in the mid 1970's . . by our military!

A microwave beam of pulsed frequencies and modulating the speed can determine how quickly a target will get cancers and other illness by reducing the immune systems. By changing the pulse frequency you can induce psychiatric illness that cannot be diagnosed or detected by psychiatric specialists. Microwave weapons are used in targeting the human brian to induce severe rage and violence leading to that person either being committed into a mental hospital or prison.

This technology is being used to bring economic ruin to countries by targeting food supplies causing crop failure.

U.S. Defense Intelligence says this weapon needs to be kept a secret to protect industrial profits and security.

Declassified documents: http://www.stopocsmartmeters.com/smart-meter-dangers/public-health-hazard/military-use-of-emr/

I'm confused by what appears to be a simple situation. Why didn't the lady just opt for the non-wireless meter if she was concerned about the wireless one?

Even if she was concerned about the additional cost, that would have at least allowed her to have a meter that she felt safe with while she pursued whatever legal actions she might have taken.

Seems to me that she waited too long so that the City was forced to take action, due to her inaction.

Is there more to this story than is being reported?

I decided to come back and read updated posts. Having done so I'm reminded of the old saw, "Can't see the forest for the tree." While everybody is lamenting the unhealthy aspects of the smart meter, they miss UN's Agenda 21, the culprit behind this incident. What happened here can happen in anyone of the 6000+ communities that have bought into it across the country. It too is unhealthy in that civil war might be fought because of it...don't worry about transmitting smart meters, worry about transmitting 'smart' to your neighbors ...Semper Fi

And they aired this on the News. This wasn't news worthy for T.V. when there's more important news to report than this trash.

You go, ladies! This story has gone nationwide, and many of us are behind you!

Paul from Phila. will be following and spreading this story
what a disgrace total violation of the constitution. They could have just shut the power off-maybe- not enter her property w/o a warrant - you need exigent circumstances and prove that. Cop should have stood up for her or did his homework and cited laws that protect her-like I have done and would have done.

King Krieger and his Merry Jesters

http://youtu.be/NnDu7fIgpjA

Paul. No part of the consitution was violated.

No one is searching your house w/o a warrant. It's a damn electrical meter to determine usage. It doesn't go through your dresser drawers, closets and looks for illegal drug,guns or fugitives. Plus the meters aren't seizing nothing illegally!

Sun worshipers that love to get tans are getting more radiation from the sun than they will from a smart meter and the ones that complain or refuse them are probably sun tanners.

The sun or warrant? I'm correct on both!

After world war 11 the Nuremberg trials were all about blindly following orders and using that excuse. They hung them for not having the guts to say no to illegal and abusing behavior. Granted these people killed many innocent people.

These incidents in no way rise to this severity but easily could have. Had one home owner decided (irrationally) to protect his home would a policeman have shot the guy or his dog over a lousy smart meter?

This is insanity and the City manager and police chief should be fired if for no other reason then stupidity.

My brother lives in Riverside and has a smart meter on his house for the the last few years now and has not had any problems. He thinks people are crazy hete fighting the issue.

Think folks not in favor of the smart meters being installed ( mine was installed several months ago without any problems, health issues, etc ) might take a walk thru "Area 51."!

For a guy using an alter ego name of Buford Pusser who fought all his life against mafia style thuggery by both government and run of the mill criminals it’s astounding that you would try to defend this gross abuse of power.

Of course those ignorant of history are bound to repeat it. Beware my friend, ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.

When you wake up one morning with no rights, no freedoms, no personal property and no protection by those sworn to protect you; you may wish to think back to a time before NDAA, drones, TSA searches, illegal road blocks, cameras at every street corner, etc. but it will be too late! Either protect you freedoms and cherish them or lose them to Chicago style thugs!

Just to add to Gerald's true words of wisdom, this countries' politicians are no longer in it for service. It is a high paying career with many perks that people in the private sector would go to jail for. Big government is nothing more that evil big business with a police escort. Don't wait until we need untouchables like elliot ness to break up the "mob". The middle class is being whittled away to a slave class and the "masters" are the big government crooks and their croonies.

Those implementing the Smart Grid KNOW they have a privacy problem. Their internal documents reveal this fact. Read more yourself at the below link.

Privacy Concerns Challenge Smart Grid Rollout, Reuters, Jun 25, 2010:

"We, Siemens, have the technology to record it (energy consumption) every minute, second, microsecond, more or less live," said Martin Pollock of Siemens Energy, an arm of the German engineering giant, which provides metering services.

"From that we can infer how many people are in the house, what they do, whether they're upstairs, downstairs, do you have a dog, when do you habitually get up, when did you get up this morning, when do you have a shower: masses of private data."

http://www.stopocsmartmeters.com/smart-meter-dangers/privacy-invasion/

Maureen time to put on your foil cap!!

Buford: Zzzzzzzz. Boring comment. Get yourself a way from the TV and start reading world history. Start with Winds of War by Herman Woulk then move on to the sequel War and Remembrances. If you don't read much, get the series of both. It's frightening how quickly power unchecked be unleashed. Then you can move on to Atlas Shrugged, but as Rick Santelli said, "you don't have to read it, you're living it." Better yet, lets get a book club together and explore the miracle of our founding fathers.

Sandy do you see UFO's too?? I bet you even voted for the idiot that's in Office now!

Buford: even more boring. You can do better than that. You must not be very intuitive if you imagine that I voted for O at anytime.

Buford: from boring to absurd. Do you have any philosophical, rational, historical or code of values to make the statements you do?

Which one? They are all valid points.

This is a good community, with good comments, which is why we have an Internet 'Troll' amongst us? Internet 'trolls' are abusive, obnoxious bloggers who strikes viciously at any attempt to help via arguments and disharmony in online communities, they suffer from an inability to reason. Skip them, by-pass, don't respond. Let apathy do the work for us...Semper Fi

I do want to thank Bob H and Buford for their ugly trolling so anyone interested can see the sad kind of ignorance and shilling going on in our country and maybe a few more people will wake up from their brainwashed trance to fight back.

Reading the comments reminds me of the "Point Counter Point show." We now have our own here in Naper Town!

We returned home Friday to find footprints all over our driveway and front yard. I guess that the police were here also. Unfortuantely, the hot swap of our functioning meter for a non-wired fried the circuit in our furnace. We have an older home and were concerned that the swap would cause similar problems as our neighbor. We had an agreement with the city to set up an appointment for the switch. They came one day, while my husband was at work so they said they would call him to set up another appointment. They had cell and work numbers. Of course, they came Friday unannounced switched the meters and now we have no heat until Monday. Like Kim, they say one thing, then do another. Telling citizens that they'd shoot the dog if needed? See video on napervillesmartmeter awareness.org. King Krieger demands 100% compliance from the citizens on the electric monopoly, he doesn't seem to require the same standards of himself. The debacle is 1.7 million over budget. The Council just authorized another $300,000 to manually read the meters, which even aren't working yet. What was the thug like attack on our citizens now, other than personal ambition or intimidation against those who dared to speak out? Where and who was at a meeting to decide these tactics? Was the meeting announced so the public was aware or have input? Sell the electric company! Our rates are higher than other suburbs! We demand choice for electricity providers!

Sandy, I have a friend whi lives in a state that was having problems with older homes and it was causing fires and electrical issues.
They started to move the meters to garages and storage sheds and seemed to eliminate the problems.
Maybe someone can help you on or af
t city coucil. Just a suggestion.

2 Min on how our city business is conducted.

http://youtu.be/NnDu7fIgpjA

You guess the Police were there? Is that an assumption? Our rates in Naperville are far from being higher than other communities. Sell what electric company? Hot swaps are done everyday and everywhere in all communities when meters are in need of replacement and maintenance.

No Buford, our rates are not lower than many communities. We did the homework, and it was presented to Council. Ask McElroy, he has the study. Yes, sell the electric company and use the proceeds to pay off unfunded pensions. Get rid of this archaic law that forbids citizens purchase their power from competing providers. Other communities, which have voted to enter the free market are doing much better with their rates. As a Bolingbrook (Curran enjoys free market as he stated he is a resident) resident and friend said, Thank goodness the city offers us a choice. It's the first time my bill has been under a hundred dollars." My question is, where are the electric company's separate financials? If the pensions for the utility comes from the taxpayers, how is that handled? Does the utility pay back the city for benefits or is it an extra subsidy charged to the taxpayers not reflected in the rates?

Damn it I just caught my smart meter peaking in the window to see if I was home and walking around naked!

BP: You are wrong about rates and you are wrong about police. You apparently are unwilling to do your homework and prefer to pontificate about nothing. The study as been presented, you can get it from McElroy or view it at the council meeting.

Care to bet about the rates and the Police????

Better yet do you want to see electric bills from where family and friends live! You will be surprised.

BP: we have the bills and the data. No, I don't bet. Talk to the residents reporting in. Go drive around looking for street cameras and road blocks to make sure you are cozy and safe. Contact us when all the DOE standards and mandates are put in place. Now, go find a place for your HAN unit so you can watch your hour to hour energy use and save a dollar a month signing up for TOU billing. Oh yeah, let the city regulate your thermostat too...voluntarily, of course, for now. Enjoy all of it, as you seem to be taken care of by the collective.

I have the data and bills too. As far as cameras and roadblocks so what!!!! I'm for both 100%. The smart meters can not control the thermostat in your house. More sci-fi crap!

Buford: do you have to be spoon fed everything? Voluntary Demand Side Control.

http://www.naperville.il.us/emplibrary/Smart_Grid/NSGIQuestionResponseInventory.pdf

Yes you sign a contract with the power company giving them rights to access their equipment, but violating that is a breach of contract...not a crime. That's not something you should even have a cop showing up at your door for.

Yes they have a right of way...but denying them that right is not a penal law offense. They can cut off your power, they can jack up your rates, fine you...but you shouldn't be getting arrested. This was a civil law violation. The charge laid here (interference)is indicative that the cop couldn't find an arrestable violation of penal law. If a power company shows up and the homeowner refuses to let them on the property the charge in the end shouldn't be interference....what was the legal action the COP was performing that the homeowner interfered with? The power company had the "right of way"....not the officer. Police have the ability to arrest on a crime that happens in our presence or on probable cause. Keeping someone off your property in this situation is not a crime in the legal definition.

If there was a public emergency necessitating immediate access to utility lines/connection they could charge "criminal nuisance" or perhaps reckless endangerment if the property owner interfered. What was the immediate emergency necessitating an arrest in this instance?

Buford for a person so basically ignorant of the law, American history, Constitutional issues, Bill of Rights, technical, mechanical, electrical devices and their limitation and capabilities you embarrass yourself every time you post one of your ill-conceived and totally off the wall statements.

It is painful to continually see another human being humiliate himself to the extent that you seem to enjoy. You are a contrarian for no other purpose then to aggravate and insult people.

Why don’t you come out of the closet, act like a man, use your real name and stop playing games because you are anonymous. Reading your posts are like listening to a petulant 12 year old. Grow up and get a life.

Gerald do you care to match wits on the law and what the Police can and can't do! I'll make you look like a fool. Also don't talk foolish about the Constitution or the bill of rights. As none were violated by anyone in Naperville. . As for the smart meters they can not adjust ones thermostat, see how many people live in the house, if one has pets , guest visting or all the sci-fi thinking here! Damn it I just caught the smart meter looking in my trash and going through my bill drawer.

Both were unlawful arrests. Hopefully those arrested with sue the officer(s) personally. They are not protected from civil liabilty as they were unlawful arrests.

Wrong! The arrest were lawful.

Bufford Pusser
I have read your comments and all I can say is your viewpoints are quite scary. To condone these womens arrests and law enforcement escorts to install a meter speaks volumes about your character. I have spoke to my neighbors, friends and family in Naperville and there isn't one person whom agrees with how this local government has handled this situation.

The city manager and city council used bullying tactics to enforce something that some of their residents didn't want. Now residents in this state, country and worldwide are seeing firsthand the lengths at which this city will go to get "100% compliance". This has moved from a smart meter issue to a freedom issue.

Marc: as a free person, so far, unless HAN units are required, you can choose to have a monitor, microwave, cell phones etc. Free people get to choose where to put them. You wouldn't put a microwave in your children's oven. I'm sure by now you don't put your cell phone in your infants crib. If a child is playing with an iPad, we all limit their use, and put it on "airplane" mode if they do. It's choice what equipment goes on or in our homes. The forced wireless meter is on walls of our family rooms, where our kids play or on bedroom or kitchen walls. The tropos are surrounding our schools, churches, stores and play areas. Maybe you believe the corporate/government safety studies if this new technology. Many of us, however choose to wait, limit all RF exposure and decide that we don't want our private homes used as transmitting stations. We don't want our homes monitored for real timeouts too nite energy use.

Correction: we don't put microwaves in our children's room, and we certainly don't let them sit near running microwaves for hours at a time.

Let's chop down all the cell phone towers in Naperville and other communities that transmit tons of RF signals. I don't see anyone protesting the cell towers?

Buford: yes, there are people concerned about the cell towers, especially the AT&T mini towers gong on the light posts...but that is another issue. These are devices that are being forced on our homes, ours on our family room wall which is the kids play area. They are not only transmitting and receiving continually, some are recieving and transmitting data from other homes in your neighborhood 24/7. By the way, Buford, they could have been hard wired in to avoid the health issues, but Curran, Krieger and your Council picked the cheap installation (which I'm sure is going to end up a financial bleed). By the way, the police did show up at houses with initial contact.

Let's all quit our jobs then if you work in an office setting with many computers and routers and devices that transmit rf signals.

The Police never showed up at my house or my neighbors when the meters were installed. I guess the Police go to problematic homes when the meters are installed!

Buford
Problematic? Saying "no I don't want a smart meter on my home due to health and privacy issues" is problematic? Don't you think the police need to be on the streets dealing with the stabbings, murders, public intoxication, thefts, armed robberies, heroin problems that are occuring in Naperville? But no you have to put those moms in their place for not wanting a smart meter. **Sarcasm**
Rediculous

Jim Smith: you are making zero sense. Unless McDonald's wanted to build a house on my property, it doesn't matter. You are great with smoke and mirrors, though. It is our homes and we don't want that type of device on our homes. Now we are reading that the city needed to get a search warrant to be on our property if we refused. They continue to trash our civil rights. I wonder if our city attorney advised staff to do so.

Jim Smith: in Florida we did get a check every year from our electric company. But let's do it better. Sell the utility company, let it be run by a professional board, then pay back the Unfunded pensions. The remainder is a nice check to each homeowner. Then we all get to participate in the free market and pick our own providers. By the way Orland Park rebates its citizens sales tax instead of blowing it on nonsensical schemes and double dipping pensions

BP: that's not what you bet on. What's "problematic" homes? People who dissent? People who speak out? Oops, according to code, King Krieger needed to obtain warrant before they trespassed on our property. Who advised them to break the law?

Buford: Again, what does that have to do with private property rights? Our homes are our castles, and places of refuge. They are why we work, so we can go home and enjoy security, safety, peace and most of all privacy from the heavy hand of government. You just don't want to make an effort to secure your civil rights nor stay informed on the issues. You seem to want to delegate others to make your life decisions. Sheepal comes to mind

No search warrant is needed!!!! Read #26 again and educate yourself. A warrant is only needed for the inside of residential and businesses to conduct inspections if the owners refuse entry. Damn learn something! Feel free to call The DuPage SAO or the Illinois Attorney Generals Office. No warrant is never needed for backyards concerning easement rights!!!

Buford: we all respect the Naperville Police, even, as the city argued for our double dipping of pension "non police" police Chief...or is it Police Manager???? Anywho, it's the actions of the city who decided to use the police for their ambitions.

If you haven't noticed....there are a few utility shills on this article. The best way to counteract their nonsense postings is to not address their nonsense but rather to POST FACTS ABOUT THE SMART GRID FORCED INSTALLATIONS.

Smart Meters - something to be afraid of? http://www.squidoo.com/beware-of-smart-meters

I just caught the smart meter looking in wife's underwear drawer. It's interested in how many laced panties she owns.

Great job, Ladies! George Noory covers Naperville Smart Meter arrests & cyberattack warning.

http://www.coasttocoastam.com/show/2013/01/24

Coast to Coast AM - Jan 24 2013 - Smart Meters & Consciousness

NY Times: Smart Grid WILL BE HACKED...it's just a matter of time.

http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/01/17/a-hacker-says-smart-grid-can-be-penetrated/

Wow - someone may hack in and know how much electricity I save because of the advanced reporting the smart grid provide. I am so scared - I may just quit my job and obsess about this 24-7.

Maureen where can I sign up. It would help to start a support group because sleep I will not.

Please someone call the meter Police someone knows my kilowatts!! I feel violated!! Not!

Hey Bob H there's a tin foil rally planned!!

I think we all know that Maureen is not someone to listen to as she gets her information from conspiracy theorists like George Noory. Kim and these other folks have gone shows with crazies like Noory as well.

To be completely honest, I was initially against the project because I didn't see an ROI for the tax payers. I would have voted no for that reason alone. I could care less about privacy and data security, because technology has forced us all to take this risk (credit cards, internet surfing, even rewards programs at supermarkets have potential privacy concerns).

The reason I am so ticked off at what I think are people devoid of reality is because we ALREADY SPENT THE DAMN MONEY. Let me repeat myself, there is no refund coming. The city can now use the smart grid to adjust purchasing and pricing and to get back out investment. The anti smart grid people are costing out city thousands of dollars to defend a project that is 99% complete.

So if your biggest concern the the financial state of the city, you should be pro smart grid. If not, there are a handful of crazies you should get in touch with.

Wow this is weird! I went outside today and stood next to the smart meter to see what effects it has. I tried repeating my home phone number and it kept coming out as if I was saying Obamas phone number! Fe fi fo-fe fi fo fo
I went back into the house and everthing was normal again. Amazing.

I hung 5 strips of bacon on my Smart Meter and 10 minutes later, I had crisp bacon for breakfast! Uses less power than my microwave! Also, comes in handy for thawing frozen vegetables.

Wow, Albert! What mental process convinced you to fry bacon on your smart meter? It seems like your critical thinking skills are a bit foggy. I hope that you're not sleeping with your cell phone under your pillow, nor using your microwave to dry your hair.

Glad to see Sandy is at it again. I went to school with her son. You know, the one running for council on the "I hate all things government" platform. They are both a bit on the "out there" side. Mrs. Glass, still belive that contrails are a government conspiracy of chemical spraying or that the government gave Magic Johnson the cure for AIDS and no one else? Let's talk about your critical thinking skills...

I went outside and asked the smart meter questions about Obamacare , HHS mandate, and the Country's financial tailspin and the meter gave smarter answers than Obama does!

Tommy O you can't handle the truth or are you one of the whiners that complains about everything Naperville does!

Joe Naper: The city must have called out the junk yard dogs. Making up more nutty things that no one ever said, to smoke up the issues and deflect the conversation. What can you expect from an anonymous character hit man? Go outside with Pussar and pontificate while cooking lunch on your smart meter.

Sandy what's made up and deflected from this story line? Are the smart meter signals messing up your brains electrical neurons? :-)

Joe Naper please tell me more about Sandy's son that's running for City Council and his platform so I my not vote for him if I don't like his agendas!

Interesting! Downers Grove went to the smart meters almost two years ago and you didn't hear squat or the residents complain about it.

Ok folks...it's now a new month Feb....time to turn off the Smart Meter comments and move on......

Really, so just because you turn a page on the calendar all the concerns with the smart meters just magically go away? Did the fact that our city performs unconstitutional arrests just magically disappear too?

Naperdad. Unconstitutional arrest?

Come on Walking Small, even you are aware of the fact that the SCOTUS ruled IL eavesdropping laws unconstitutional.

The case will still be challanged by the Illinois Attorney General! So if the Police can be recorded, I'm entitled to hide a camera wherever I wish as its my right to record anything I want without anyone's permission. Cameras in a bedroom and shower? Is there a differnce then?

I hope Illinois does win the appeal/argument before SCOTUS! My point is if the Police can be recorded in public, I should be able to record inside my house which is private property!

Let's turn the tables naperdad! How about the Police or I follow you or your family around in public and walk near you and record your conversations on video? I want Illinois to win. I have no problem with video only in public as there is no expectation of privacy , but not audio. Here's an example! Officers are at a crime scene and they are discussing confidential information to the case and a homie captures the conversation such as a victim or witness that may implacate his homie. The conversation could be detrimental to the case , victim or witness ! Do you need to know why? Or how about if the Officers are at a scene and need to trade their personal information such as address or phone number or departmental sensitive information. Should scam bags or idiots be able ti record it and use it to their benefit! No! Let the video stay, but no audio.

And no you can't just record in your home without ones permission. Case in point , a guy recorded his sexual trist with a women without her knowing and the guy got arrest! Why?

Buck watch the ACLU and Civil rights groups intervene and the microphones will be stopped, thus so will eaves dropping on Police conversations.

You still didn't answer this Naperdad!

Naperdad I'm going the City Council meeting tomorrow night to see all the whack job smart meter protesters act in their silly ways. I'll bring my smart meter with to say hello!

I figured you would be one of the nuisances there!

I think Buford has a man crush on Naperdad !!

This video is so true and freakin funny. Watch this anti smart meter disciples!

Naperdad I have my smart meter out on an assignment following you around!

Councilmen Buford and BobH, we Napervillians do not appreciate your spending naperville's dime on this comment page. You should be doing your job of actual government work, like looking up the law and realizing that the arrested were not for blocking installation, but for "eavesdropping" which in the court of law will end up costing Naperville big bucks for being not a legal arrest. However, I do thank you for the long list of comments that show your lack of character that can be traced back to your computer and hopefully used by your opponents in the next election :)

Per tonight's Agenda. Section 14: Customer Equipment

Who does the Section 14.2 apply to? Does the DPUE have the right to gain access to our homes or business to inspect or test any homeowner equipment, including refrigerators, lighting, tools, medical equipment? Does that include warrentless police force and arrest?

Section 14 page 28 or Agenda page 525:

14.2. "DPUE hereby reserves the right and authority to gain access to inspect or gain access to inspect and test any customer owned equipment which is connected to DPUE system.

14.3 DPUE shall be the sole authority to determine whether any customer owned equipment connected to the DPUE system cause or "may" have a deleterious effect on the quality of service provided by DPUE to its customers.

14.4DPUE hereby reserves the right AND AUTHORITY to require the Customer to install, at the customers sole expense, any such wiring and equipment which the DPUE determined is required to prevent any deleterious effects on the quality of service provided by DPUE to its customers.

http://www.naperville.il.us/emplibrary/Boards_and_Commissions/cc20130205p.pdf

Naperville must be ground zero for the "Green Agenda.". In exchange for electricity, by ordinance, the property owner must give away unfettered access to their home and property to the Department of Public Utilities. The home or business owner must relinquish all property rights, constitutional rights and civil rights just to have electricity. Absolutely no limitations regarding procedure, notification, use of force.

14.2 the DPUE reserves the RIGHT and AUTHORITY to gain access to, inspect and test ANY Customer-owned equipment which is connected to the DPU-E

Waaaa Waaaa! Mommy I don't like the smart meters! Waaa!
