Letter: Vote Talbot for RMLD

William J . Hecht Sr. writes in support of David Talbot's candidacy for Reading Municipal Light Department Commissioner.

To the editor:

I am going to vote for Dave Talbot for RMLD. I urge you to do so as well. Dave has many solid workable recommendations to save us, as customers, money, conserve energy and use practical renewable energy sources. This will help us as customers and benefit RMLD as a system. 

Here's why Dave is so knowledgeable. In my 20 plus years as a Vice President at MIT our award winning magazine 'Technology Review' reported to me. For the past 12 years Dave has been an editor and writer there, and now is chief correspondent. As such he has learned a great deal about energy technologies, efficiencies, and customer controlled energy savings. these subjects have been on the front burner in many MIT research areas.

Among his many projects, Dave has focused on the nationwide experiments going on in other countries to generate cleaner energy, on strategies that conserve energy through smart grid efforts and incentives to customers, and on technologies that cut the use of carbon emitting sources. 

Dave will bring sound and real recommendations to RMLD, if elected. He can help us each to cut our costs, move more energy generation to renewables that are cost effective and build a better RMLD. His ideas are based not on assumptions but proven facts.Support DAVE TALBOT for RMLD.
