Attention Board Secretary

I wish to add the following for your consideration during the increase consideration requested by Hydro One, as one of many senior citizens struggling to stay in our own homes with the present money crisis, driving our pensions down, with absolutely no chance to increase our income, these constant increases in delivery costs from both Ontario Hydro and natural gas suppliers are becoming a very real problem, as these are the larger portion of the hydro and gas bills.

For eleven months my Hydro total cost 2008 = $159.15

While the delivery cost was......... .................$215.50

Since it is very difficult to live without heat and hydro I am asking that very careful consideration be given to this request, since it is the largest part of the overall cost of a necessary requirement.
