Gotta love your local EMC
Think I'll re-invest it in refreshments this evening, just to help the economy along.

Paul M on Feb 15, 2012I got a class action settlement once, don't remember exactly what it was but the amount was 78 cents. I kept the check somewhere because that was just silly. I guess the attorneys are the only ones that made any money on that one.Helpful Reply

Michael on Feb 16, 2012An EMC is short for "Electric Membership Co-oporation", where every customer is also an owner of the co-op. Mostly found in rural areas of the country. It is basically a kinda non-profit, instead of having to report to shareholders, the customers are the shareholders, and any excess profits are returned to the shareholders(customers). Plus, when you're a member of an EMC, you'll receive a level of service, you just won't get with a big box utility.Helpful Reply
