Green Mountain Energy Review Stay away from Power switch Variable
This is my experience with Green Mountain energy they raised their rate to 10.9 cents after a few months while still offering 5.9 cents to new customers.
Stick to fixed rates when choosing energy suppliers.
Comment on your experiences with Green Mountain Energy below or just general power switch issues, comments or suggestions.

Interesting movie on an interesting psychologist
Interesting movie based on the 1960’s psychologist Stanley Milgram.

Also funny no one doing the fake shocking mentioned the if the learner was really in so much pain he could just remove the thing shocking him.
