I just wanted to share that in quoting Secretary of Energy, Steven Chu's statement from above in one of our newsletters, it was pointed out to me that the quote should read: “When it comes to saving money and growing our economy, energy efficiency isn’t just low hanging fruit; it’s fruit lying on the ground,” not "fruit laying on the ground to be grammatically correct. A minute detail to some, it could bring into question either Secretary Chu's education, or that of the person relaying the quote.
