[ snip ]

in nassau/suffolk in new york (aka long island), the local power company
is setting up a program whereby your central air conditioning system gets
connected, via the internet (!!), and you get a small $$ bonus in return
for allowing them to shut off your a/c unit during peak usage times.
the box and hookup are free, as well as software to allow you to control
your own unit over the 'net.

Once upon a time there was a similar program in Wichita, except they shut
your AC down via wireless.  Called the power company to see about moving
the box when switching from siding to stone a few years ago, and they said
that they quit doing the remote shutdown.
