WWII Veteran dies a horrible death because of an unpaid bill. Regardless of how you feel about veterans, war, or the united states...this HAS to make you go "WTF is going on here?". Being a bullet sponge in WWII only got him injured...but the electric company got him.

Outrage filter? Editorialising?
Besides, Hypothermia is not a 'horrible and painful death' according to the many reports I have read. It seems you basically get disorientated and go to sleep, with maybe a bit of shivering and shaking.

I read this one a few days ago.
In Iowa (and at least some other midwestern states) they will not shut off power in winter. This is a sad story, and even after reading it, I don't quite get the concept of one of these electric limiter things. Oh well.
A bit heavy handed on the editorializing.

Regardless of how you feel about blogs and who should GTO, this HAS to make you go "WTF is going on here?"
