  • Dear Editor,

    I'm at the point of smashing my TV from the lectures Noeleen from 3Talk gives the greater public about efficient energy consumption.

    Who the made her expert on this or is she just a "celebrity" puppet used to fool the masses?

    Eskom is telling me when to make food or when to take a bath or wrap a blanket around my geyser or switch it off for that matter, but any professional electrical engineer will tell you that you will use more power in doing so because it requires a lot of electricity to reheat 100 litres of water.

    How many businesses have their lights burning day and night? Noeleen, go and preach to them because we are away from home eight or more hours a day.

    John Petersen,
    Cape Town
