    Ladies and gentlemen;

    There is really only one question to address at your meeting: when to start the removal of Smart Meters in Arizona.

    Attached is a well-documented article on how my health, that of my bees, and my hens and my plants has been affected since the deployment of Smart Meters in Sedona in April of 2014. It has much research and back-up info at the end that should also be required reading for you and your colleagues. Until I was struck down, I knew nothing about the dangers of Smart Meters. It has not been a pretty education.

    These Smart Meters are killing machines.

    Precautionary discretion requires that removal of Smart Meters be the only question on the agenda.

    Please note that individual opt out doesn’t even begin to handle the damages. FYI: I have never had a Smart Meter on my property — the Smart Meters on the properties around mine caused documented damage to myself, to my bees, to my hens, and to my plants. Where ever I go in town I get re-exposed. Damages are cumulative.

    To continue with the agenda of how to punish those who are not going along with your killing program willingly (ie those who have opted out) will be considered “malice aforethought”. You will be held liable for your actions.

    Thank you for taking the time and for addressing my challenge in detail. Please wake up and care those you are elected to protect — getting rid of Smart Meters could even save your own life.

    Yours most sincerely,
    🙂 Marianna Hartsong, Ph.D.

    So that you know that this is not a private note to you (which you imagine you can ignore), I am copying this to whomever may choose to read this beyond those copied above.
