The rapt attention of most every one of the over eighty attendees at the final general membership meeting of the year was focused on each of the four presenters discussing electric smart meters on Tuesday (11/18/14) evening. Whether it was either of two advocates including John Cole , Assistant Specialist, Hawaii Natural Energy Institute from UH Manoa, and MECO’s Kurt Tsukiyama in support or two citizen opponents, Dr Debra Green, Energy Health & Environment Consultant, and retired electrical engineer, Richard Billman,  full attention was given to each presenter and the four power point presentations. Afterwards, there were numerous inquiries made to all of them, and discussions continued out in the parking lot.

While we already miss the professional report from the now defunct Maui Weekly of the monthly meetings, look for a video report on Akaku, Maui Community Television of this one.
