Subject: Failures to Communicate / Re: Smart Meters
I’ve gotten a number of emails from a number of individuals regarding the Smart Meter subject — thank you, everyone who’s written me 🙂
I do regret that, unfortunately, late last night on my way to bed, when I cleared out my spam folder, I accidentally caught at least one Chatlister’s message — but I only noticed it in the half second or so between when I clicked the “delete all spam” button and when the page refreshed to show that all was gone. While the haze of sleep had already started to descend on me at that point, the address I seem to recall seeing appeared to be for somebody named Joe L-something.
I don’t know, unfortunately, if there were others — while Gmail is usually fairly good with spam protection, a month or two ago I got an “unsubscribe” email that was for something that I hadn’t signed up for. I of course assumed that it was a phishing scam (i.e. trying to get my login credentials for something) and deleted it — only to be buried the next morning in an avalanche of spam that sadly has yet to let up.
I believe I’ve replied to everyone who’s sent me emails *except* the ones who Gmail erroneously thought were spammers (and the one person on the Chatlist who I’ve had to block because they were unfortunately unforgivably disgusting in their communications with me — I will not name this person out of respect for a fellow human being, but you know who you are),
Having said that — if you’ve sent me an email in response to my Chatlist post(s), and I have *not* responded to you, would you please resend your message, so that I have another chance? As my Grampa Cliff often said (or so I’m told, he died before I was born)… “anything worth doing, is worth doing well” — and I agree 🙂
Thanks everyone!
Chris
