This happened to me recently and I found it unsettling. What seems to be the consensus from neighborhood blogs, etc., is that it isn't a scam per se, but the execution is extremely shady. They came to my house and asked if I'd heard of cancer and if I was scared of it (lol) and then said they needed to see my energy bill, which is when I said I didn't have it and couldn't help them because it seems pretty fair to not show strangers on your porch your financials. I think the end game is a sales pitch to get you to switch to a legitimate clean energy carrier, but the method is scammy and also financially risky.

Cool, thank you!

I've always pronounced it with 3 syllables, but didn't know about the naming convention.

100%. The "well in NYC it's better because ..." is basically a punchline at this point!

There’s also just absolutely no adherence to stop signs in any capacity. A 4-way stop? Forget it. “It’s my turn when I want to go.”

Nope. I booked mine for the Maine/Canadian border in February. (Fortunately it was a renewal so somehow I got through without a new interview and was able to cancel my unintended vacation).
