"Too Cheap to Meter"
At Nuke Power Talk, Gail Marcus recaps the history of the phrase "too
cheap to meter" that has haunted the industry for so many years. She
was spurred to write on this topic this week by her husband, Mike
Marcus, who writes a blog on telecommunications issues. After their
recent stay in a hotel in Phoenix where they had free long-distance
phone calls, Mike concluded that maybe Lewis Strauss should have said
that telecommunications would become too cheap to meter! Gail links to
Mike's blog so the historical evolution of pricing in the two industries
can be contrasted.
