"The meters most of us have in our homes were designed for a different age, before climate change," said Ed Miliband, the energy and climate change secretary

Before climate change? What an idiot. Was that back when the world was hot and swampy and dinosaurs controlled the meters? Or maybe it was during the time when glaciers covered the world and meters had to be located inside the igloos. What total nonsense. The ONLY reason for the so-called "smart grid" is so someone besides the home owner can control and ration energy usage.
