Ann Berry Joins Fight Against Smart Meters

Ann Berry has joined the people all across the country who are standing up against smart meters.

“Oh my goodness!,” Berry said.  “Smart meters are far more dangerous than your cell phone. And no, it is not just a way to read meters. Smart meters emit pulsed radio frequency electromagnetic waves several time a minute and operate 24 hour a day. Do you talk on your cell phones 24 hours a day?”

This is the first time Berry, a retired nurse, has gotten involved in an issue in such a public way. “But, nobody has ever tried to force a cancer causing device in my home before,” Berry stated.  “It’s time to stand up.”

Berry has written the Corporation Commission, sending them information on the health effects of smart meters.  She also sent a certified letter to her utility company, stating that she does  not want a smart meter installed on her property.”

Berry moved from Oklahoma to Pennsylvania in 1976. Then, in 2006, she retired and moved back home to Oklahoma.

“An email friend in Canada told me about the problems they are having with ‘smart meters’,” Berry continued. “I started doing some investigating and was shocked to find out these things are being forced on people across the nation and even the world. People in Texas are trying to ban smart meters, and yet the people in Oklahoma for the most part have never heard of them. So I began my study and effort to inform.”

“In the future all appliances from you toaster to your air conditioner will have embedded chips that communicate with the wireless two-way transmitting device (smart meter) of the electric company. Your appliances can be operated remotely by you, or by the electric company, or by a hacker.”

“There is public outcry against these meters across the nation,” Berry continued. “But the outcry is being suppressed in the media. There is a lawyer in Edmond who is working to get ‘smart meters’ declared unconstitutional. Maine and California have fought for and won against smart meters. In many cases, the electric company in California is removing the electric smart meters and putting the old analog meters back due to the health problems people are reporting. I hope ya’ll will look at the information on ‘stop smart meters’. ”

“There was a recent large study claiming cell phone and smart meter technology is harmless; however, a large group of scientist dispute that report saying it was poorly done and was set up to for the sole purpose of claiming cell phones are harmless. A few places are using fiber optic technology rather than the cheaper wireless technology we’re being forced into. From what I’ve read so far it looks like fiber optic is a safer option…though I don’t see why we can’t just keep our old analog meters. Thank you for joining in informing people of harmful effects of smart meters. Against all odds, I think if there is enough of a public outcry they will stop this smart meter nonsense.”

Ann Berry is a resident of Lawton, Oklahoma.

    Nobody really knows how harmful these radioactive rays are. It will be years before a long term study can be completed. If people knew how bad putting 3 cell phone transmitters (which is basically what smart meters are) on their house was, most folks would never allow it.
    It used to be unimaginable that free people be forced to buy anything they don’t want… much less forced to fill the space in their homes with something that causes illness and diabetes and eventually cancer and death. The emissions from smart meters, as with cell phone, alter cellular calcium channels and glucose metabolism. And I suppose it alters many enzymatic actions. They alter DNA replication and repair. Radioactive emissions may be a major cause of the world’s obesity epidemic. There are little communities springing up to get away from “the grid”. Check out “Off the Grid” on Facebook. And of course, there are the Amish. They will probably out live us all.

    GET USED TO IT.

    PG&E has already killed people in Hinkley, California and San Bruno California and other places that are less well known.

    Why are these people complaining about smart meters? Do they think that they deserve better than those who have already been killed by PG&E?

    Do these people think that their children deserve to live when the lives of other children have already been destroyed by PG&E?

    I just don’t understand these people complaining about smart meters. PG&E has a record of killing and sickening people throughout the state and that’s not going to change. Why don’t these people just accept it, like the rest of us?

    Ionizing radiation is potentially far more harmful to living organisms because of the potential for DNA damage. Non-ionizing radiation can generate heat. The closer tissue is to higher frequencies and power, e.g. microwave oven effect, the more heat. There is little to suggest wi-fi class radiation causes damage, but the issue is considered unsettled.

    In my view, there are more worthy battles than going after low power radio wave at a distance, but on the other hand, maybe not such a great idea to hold a cell phone to your ear all day. Use a headset.

    The professionals saying the frequencies of cell phones and “smart meters” are safe aren’t qualified to make that statement. The nerve and muscle effects (not the heat effect) account for the wide range of symptoms from smart meters. These frequencies interfer with the electrical systems of our body plus impact bees, pollinators and ecosystems The ion channel functions of cells are altered (such as glucose metaboism and calcium cannels). And though the DNA may not be damaged, DNA replication,repair, and protein synthesis probably is. The only reason this got by electrical engineers is the frequencies and electrical properties of biologic systems were left out, humans were treated as a piece of tissue. Long ago Russia used frequencies on the US Embassy and it caused cancers, etc. The industry-loyal scientists systematically repeat a set of policy messages that counter the results of independent scientists and coincide with the interests of the industry. There is plenty of evidence that EMF,RF cause altered cellular functions. There have been more than 2,000 studies over the years showing that this is the case. Recently they are working hard to churn out studies that dispute those studies. As far as I’m concerned there is not battle more important than the safety of our homes.

    A smart grid will put into place “digitally controlled devices that can alter the nature of the electrical load (giving the electric company the ability to turn off appliances in your home if they see fit.”

    If you are using too much electricity, the kill switch is there to make sure that you are in compliance with mandated electrical usage. If you are trying to grow food, and your electrical consumption is high because of it, you can be cut off. No electricity means no water. No water means no crops. This is a total control grid.

    Unlike traditional electric meters that merely record power use – and then must be read in-person once a month by a meter reader – Smart Meters measure consumption in real time. By being networked to computers in electric utilities, the new meters can signal people or their appliances to take certain actions, such as reducing power usage when electricity prices spike…

    The system also has the ability to remotely disconnect or reconnect service…

    The noose is tightening, and food is on the menu for complete corporate control. Control the food, and you control the people. Control the water, and you control the food. Control the electricity needed to pump the water, and you effectively place that noose squarely around our nation’s neck.

    This is a copy and paste from a forum on http://www.stopsmartmeters.com

    “As almost all manufacturing of smart meters and chips in appliances is done in China and knowing that the old USSR had experimented with RF radiation as a weapon there could be consequences to these RF appliance implants beyond just what the utilities want.

    We know that it is RF radiation is harmful. We know that China makes their plans centuries in advance. It would be awfully tempting to use something that will destroy health over a long period of time. It would be a way to control the population without having to fire a shot.”
