AndyM:
No argument with what you are saying, except for the idea that a UPS "filters" rough generator power.  People think UPS's work the way a charger/battery/inverter setup works, with all the 120v power being converted to 12v and back to 120v via the inverter 100% of the time.

But that's off-topic, sorry.

Tinman57:
  I think all of this started from the new "Smart Meters" they're installing around the country.  They just installed one on my house about 2 months ago.  It's good that it sends the meter readings over the lines and automatically tells them when there's a power outage, but bad for the meter-readers.  And of course it's bad for privacy because now they can tell what your running in your house, from A/C's to lighting.....
