Astrology&Power Theft

November12,2007 Astrology & Power Theft What is the relationship between astrology and power theft? Tamperfinder has no idea till he conducted a surprise inspection recently. There is no Reference Book to go through also……….. Two entirely different topics of science with no common field of interest. Heavenly bodies like Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Mars etc play decisive role in Astrology while voltage, current, meters, seals etc comes under the latter. The letter received the other day, unfolding power theft at a location, has brought nothing new…a routine work ……… But, when perused, the source information is found referring to a famous fortune-teller! Tamperfinder is not an ardent follower of astrology, hence not concerned about starting the journey for inspection at auspicious time. The vehicle moved……..came to an island with full of coconut trees in line at one side of road and the calm sea at the other side. As we moved,……… the vehicle left behind thick vegetation……cycle is the latest mode of transportation there…….A thatched big shed appeared near the road and the team alighted as if it were our destination. No…it was the cultural centre of the village, a cinema theatre…. Chemmen and Mera Nam Joker are yet to be released there…. A pretty woman sitting rear the roadside with a basket of fish and tapioca for sale….claiming fresh fish… But this fish didn’t know the history of the sea for the last3-4 days!. With her help, we carried on further….Jobless youngsters and roadside Romeos sitting on culvert side ….. busy with discussion. Their discussion ranged from the price hike of onion in Ukraine to Chikunguniya in Cochin. The road turns out to be narrow and finally we found the target. 11AM The vehicle parked few meters away…….. A lot of followers moving here and there……Street vendors are happy with business…… Without noticing any body, we went inside. Though the building is small, the attached shed is large enough to accommodate about 1000 people….. few are sitting… while others muttering something looking at the horizon… While moving swiftly, tamperfinder was caught and stopped. ??? ! ? A moving skeleton.... or a fossil in uniform………. Hither to I considered ‘paper’ as the thinnest man made material .This bony’s front and backside touch almost each other!!! ‘Got your token??’ ‘No ‘ ‘Baba…you may get a number above 250 only’…… the skeleton screamed. Got one, to get rid of him We started inspecting the energy meter. And detected power theft performed on meter…in just 2-3 minutes’ time. One of the most foolish ways of tampering the meter….all physical evidences were intact (or preserved?). And nothing erased… Quickly prepared all reports and arranged photos. 12noon Tamperfinder is known for buttering….moved to visit the Chief of the institution. But he was not available. His immediate subordinate came …shown him all evidences on meter…….No questions ….any difference of opinion or objection…..signed all papers………. ‘Can I see the Chief?’ the artifice tamperfinder requested in devotional voice… ‘Ooooooooohhhhhhhhhh Nooooooooooo.’ ‘He has gone to xxxxxxxx yesterday’. ‘This is not an arranged tour’. ‘Usually we prepare his tour program…’This time he suddenly decided to go…….’ ? “Our Chief had an intuition the other day …that you will come for surprise inspection to detect power theft today’. ‘That is why he preferred to stay away’, the sincere deputy said. Tamperfinder’s eye ball bulged out …Till depature, the sincere disciple has nothing else to say except his chief’s supernatural powers………. Then……. Why the physical evidence was not vanished?........tamperfinder was about to ask….but reserved…… not because of any premonition….. but the big moustache of the few crowded around us! Moral Belief will protect….whether astrology or power theft.
