I HAVE KNOWN Tony Keppelman for over forty years and have found him to be one of the most sensitive, deeply caring, as well as perceptive people I have ever met. He is apt to be aware of things long before the rest of the world is. Not only aware, but he acts. Thus, for example, he was actively supporting organic farmers long before it became somewhat fashionable to do so. His work in the energy fields was begun as a teenager working in an electronics store. Energy in all its forms has been the major vocation of his life.  

        So when he spoke to me about Smart Meters and EMFs, topics I knew relatively little about (Smart Meters had been installed on my house more or less without my even knowing it, or knowing of any possible side effects they might bring), I was intrigued and began to do a little research on my own.

        Tony visited me, bringing his various meters and showed me how much EMF radiation was coming into as well as being produced in my home. With a simple metal sleeve of his design fitted over the meter, the readings were astoundingly much lower. And then, with my neighbor’s permission (since his meter faced my house), another sleeve, in this case angled away from both houses, was put on his meter, which let the radiation dissipate out into the street, thus helping both my neighbor and me.

        We measured everything in the house: living room, kitchen, office, and especially the bedroom, discovering that a simple switching off of one of the circuit breakers for the bedroom at night before we went to bed changed the readings dramatically to put my wife and me into the ‘safe’ zone. Moving wires, putting in land-line telephones where we could, repositioning computers, all have helped lower levels of radiation.  

        There is much more to be done. But Tony has been extraordinarily helpful in supporting our desire for a healthful environment. I strongly suggest and recommend him for almost anyone who cares about their living situation and the dangers of EMFs that more and more surround us. I doubt, as a culture, we will soon be giving up cell phones, computers, wi-fi, televisions, stereo systems or home theatres, microwaves, and all the attractive electrical tools we have developed. But to use them intelligently, sometimes sparingly, and making some fairly simple adjustments … all of this is in our best interest.

       Tony can help anyone who cares or is willing to learn about all of the worrisome and unexpected side effects of our technology, and he can solve many of the potential problems at a tiny fraction of the cost it would take for PG&E (for example) or anyone else to do anything, not to mention the potential health costs doing nothing will certainly bring in the future.
