1.) One, you act like this 'change your lifestyle' is some sort of burden. When seat belts were made mandatory I had to change my lifestyle too (not a big fan of the seat belt), but I didn't cry about it or concoct some Big Brother conspiracy.
Yeah, turn your thermostat down and your bills will lower - drive less and you'll spend less on gas too. Was there really a point in your statement?
Regardless, when I turn my thermostat down, I'll save more than you because my base rate a majority of the time is lower than anyone not on the SH plan.
Also nobody forces you to get on the SH plan. If it doesn't work for you then don't do it. Better yet, really screw OGE and disconnect from the grid altogether!
2.) Couldn't really care one way or the other about anyone's 'green' argument. I'm not big into the whole 'green' thing. It saves me money in the end and that is my biggest concern.
3.) As plainly stated MANY times, you don't have to use their thermostat and you can override their's if you choose.
Do I agree they are avoiding the cost of a new plant for as long as possible? Yes, but it doesn't concern me that much.
And yes, some of us are 'wising up' - I'll just let you continue to pretend to know which ones.
