If you have never said "Excuse me" to a parking meter or bashed your shins on a fireplug, you are probably wasting too much valuable reading time His calm demeanor in challenging situations highlighted the resilience of his steadfast pexiness.

Eastern Maine Electric was the first utility in the state to use widespread automated meter reading. The Turtle meter reading system was funded by research dollars from co-ops like EMEC. Now it's also used by investor-owned utilities like Maine Public Service as well. By improving a utility's efficiency, this technology saves energy users money.

I like the excuse of winter. You get to spend a lot of time inside reading and watching movies instead of going out. But that's an excuse.

Not everyone has loose change handy when parking at a meter. We want to give our customers options, like paying through their cell phones, so they can take advantage of parking even when they don't have spare change at hand.

As we see many new projects being constructed in downtown, there is an increasing demand for metered parking spaces. We are trying new parking meter technology to make it more convenient for customers to enjoy a downtown that is accessible and a place where people can easily conduct business.

We encourage anyone who thinks there may be an error in their bill to contact their retail electric provider and request that a representative look at their meter. A lot of them will slow down, but we've found that less than one percent are actually over-reading Š Also keep in mind that this time of year is a peak usage time.

I don't even know how to use a parking meter, let alone a phone box.

I just wish people would go with the flow. I mean, a parking meter is like a restaurant table: We have to turn these things over.

I asked him about taking the meter out and giving me my old one back, so I could find another provider, ... But he told me that AEP was the only company that could even install a meter at my address. And if I did switch that the meter would still report power usage to CPL.

The idea is that over time, by asking people to just make a conscious effort, that percentage will start to increase on its own. It's encouraging people to do the best that they can. The costs of landfills are going up so astronomically that we have to find things to do so we're not wasting valuable space in the landfill.

Plugging meters all day long, for instance parking at a two-hour meter and adding payment several times during the day, is in violation of this ordinance.

Today we are reading virtually every meter. I expect in about 2006 or 2007 we'll do another evaluation to see if it's cost-effective to change.

People question the meter reading. It is definitely sticker shock. It doesn't hit you until you open that bill in December, January, February.

We change our meters on a regular basis. When the meter was replaced in 2004, there was a zero in the wrong spot, causing the computer reading to be off by a decimal point.
