[Ipg-smz] Man, the Dutch do it right

[Tom Geller]

I own a house in Ohio and rent one in The Netherlands.

Every year, the local utility companies in Ohio send me paper mail showing how my usage compared with last year's etc..

In The Netherlands? Auto-created custom video. Check it out. It's in Dutch but pretty easy to figure out. (What I paid last year; how much gas I used; how much money I'm getting back, and when; how that compares with other households; my new monthly payment; etc..)

Pretty cool, huh? And the narrator's (auto)reading of the numbers sounds relatively natural.
