Below are a few of the letters, comments and emails, in part, that we received over the years:
​

Bill, 
Your data on Low Pressure Sodium fixtures for outside and a 91% reduction in that lighting cost will be windfall for my department store.
Mr. G., Operation Manager - 1983

Bill, 

Your Valance lighting design with a Ghost Tube conductor and high polished reflector will reduce my department store's electric and maintenance costs in those areas by over 50%, but you already knew that fact.
CC, Operation Manager - 1985

Dear Bill, 
Your Energy Efficiency Workshop is a course that will probably pay for itself inside a couple of days.
Dean Malone - 1989

Dear Bill, 
Thanks, in part, to your participation in Earth Day 1990, New York City was the scene of the most successful environmental event in history. Without your help, we could not have organized such a victory.
Pamela, Executive Director Earth Day - 1990

Dear Bill,
Thank you for your presentation at FIT. I only wish that every student would have been able to witness the material you presented.
Michael, Event Manager, Fashion Institute of Technology - 1990

Mr. Lauto,
Your demonstration of actual energy conservative lighting was most helpful, especially demonstrations of actual practical things people can immediately do in their own homes, such as replacing outdoor lighting and hall lights that burn continuously as well as general conservation ideas.
Shirley, League of Women Voters - 1992


Bill, Thank  you for your presentation, I loved the questions from our members about contacting you with the new ways of communicating. What was an E-mail?
What was a Home Page?
What is a web site?
President of Rotary International - 1995


Bill,
I just read on your web site your U. S. Energy Plan and I was amazed at the facts about nuclear waste and how much energy we can save. Intelligently written and powerfully executed. A brilliant plan. Now only if our government leaders would read this.
New York - 2001


Hello,
I live in Kodiak Alaska. I recently purchased a 15 watt bulb from your company and I would like to buy more. What would be the lowest possible shipping charges to Alaska for a whole case of ESL-15T bulbs?
Best Regards, PV
Bill,
Thanks for the quick response. I found out about these bulbs at Safeway and I wish I knew about your website sooner, I would have saved myself about $40 to $50 bucks or more and had better bulbs too. I'm going to buy the case and take them out to my cabin over on Afognak island.
PV, Kodiak Alaska - 2002


Bill,
I just emailed my brother Frank to read your outstanding article posted at www.Energy Hotwire.com
Phenomenal writing, I really enjoyed it.
Joe, Buffalo New York - 2002


Hello,
Thanks for your response, Bill. I'm impressed with your power usage. Here in Texas with the daily high typically hitting 100, my electric bill last month was $128. Many of my friends were over $250 for similar houses. I use geothermal heat as well as all CFC light bulbs and it really makes a difference.
I'll keep in touch.
​Brett, Texas - 2003


Dear Bill,
Thank you for your fantastic presentation at the North Shore Audubon meeting. I had such positive feedback from our members and I believe you gave them enough information to actually make a change. Even my husband, the electrician, learned a thing or two. Thank you especially for coming out under such a stressful time.
Wish you peace and happiness in the coming year.
Mary, Audubon Society - 2007


Bill, you were always ahead of your time. Back in the 1980s, when you were my manager at LILCO, you knew more about lighting, saving energy, and helping the environment, than anyone.
Jeff, LIPA Power Utility - 2008

With your help and your scientific audit, we will be able to lower our electrical lighting costs by nearly 50% over the next two to three years. Our school and church, with the help of our local assemblyman, can be a model of energy conservation.
​Pastor Bob, OLM Chruch and School - 2009 


GTG keeps moving upward and forward and is something you should be really proud of. Keep up the great work. I'll be in touch someday soon.
Dean Nieter - 2016


Thanks for giving me something else to think about in the new year; plastic in my food! How do the plastic fibers get into the air?
Do scientists know?
RG, GTG Member - 2017


Dear Bill,
Thank you very much for your message. Congratulations for your lecture and your “tour de force” to be awake for 33 hours after a big travel from the States to Rome! Yes, 33 is a beautiful and significant number.
It was a pleasure to meet you. I’m happy it was for you a good experience about the Church. You have had also a good Roman experience visiting the four Basilicas, the Holy Stairs and the top of St. Peter’s dome. You have now a kind of treasure to participate to the other people.
Thank you again for your lecture and your offer to answer any questions about your expertise areas. Thank you also for your prayers. I will pray for you. God Bless you.
Yours in Christ,
 Fr. Rafael Pascual, L.C., Rome - 2018


Thank you for this very enlightening article. I had been wondering for some time why our small community recycling center had stopped processing glass. No one was talking either. Now I understand why. ​
Linkedin comment, Follower - 2019


Dear GTG,
I heard in the news that laminate floors from various manufacturers have cancer causing agents. My laminate floor is from a family business local to me and is about 5 years old. My kids play on the floor several times a week. I have extra floor boards, should I have them checked?
​Maria, GTG Member - Answered in GTG Blog 8/14/2019


Thank you very much, Prof. Lauto and, above all, for the opportunity to offer a presentation for my online students and Philosophy degree teachers. I am looking forward to you attending our conference in Valencia.
We’ll be in touch the following weeks in order to specify your stay in Valencia, Spain.
All the best,
Dean Ginés Marco - 2019


There's a lot of complexities around solar panel recycling, but you pointed out the biggest: policy. Solar modules are governed federally under RCRA as hazardous waste, and should not be landfilled. My company performs chemical testing on modules we receive, and most are declared legally hazardous due to elevated levels of lead and/or silver. Solar panel recycling will only become a profitable endeavor once it's mandated, and subsidized.
CD, Follower - 2020


Your mention of plastic clothing brings to mind a recent camping trip...All good campers know to bring along a bit of lint from your dryer to help start a fire. However, with all our polyester blends (plastic containing materials), this is no longer safe. Burning lint to start a fire is essentially burning and breathing in bits of plastic. I tried to explain this to a group of campers in their 40's and 50's last fall during a Cub Scout weekend. They were not so receptive to my "poo-pooing" their age old lint burning traditions. Needless to say, they inhaled some plastic that weekend - some people are just not ready to hear the truth...

Well thought out, but discouraging. I prefer human error over greed.

Really well written and helps explain it. I didn’t realize all of that.

Excellent blog Bill. You have created a blog where you present the facts, state openly when you may not know all of the details and created a forum where all viewpoints are welcomed and respected. You clarify misconceptions and misinformation with facts. This straightforward means of communication is what we seek today in government and in journalism . Thank you. I am very impressed.
