Baby, I'm going to San Francisco on Aug 14?(Sunday) returning Wednesday.

Attached are my comments on the Bliley amendment to the Largent amendment.

Let's add this to our daily distribution.

We don't know yet.

In the underscored language added to the RTO section I would insert "access to" between the words "planning" and "maintenance".

Let's take the opportunity.

I do too, but I think you should send it with the appropriate caveats (which I communicated verbally to her).
dev37
31,060
Fine
dev37
31,061
Looks good.

I think you have picked the two most interesting industries.
dev37
31,064
Because energy and telecom both have natural monopoly characteristics, the government gets involved in economic regulation (not just the usual environment, safety, labor and other types of regulation which all businesses are subject to).
dev37
31,065
That means that there is constant interplay between policy makers and the business community and that policy makers have alot to say about which business strategies will be successful.
dev37
31,066
Rob Wilson@ENRON
dev37
31,067
My message was sent before I finished it.
dev37
31,068
I think it would be interesting to focus your attention on this interplay -- what policy changes have meant to companies (ie the winners and losers) and how explicit companies are about how government policy drives their business strategy in these industries.
dev37
31,069
I also think it would be fascinating to compare regulators' visions for the industry they are restructuring with the reality after the fact.
dev37
31,070
I believe you would find some similarities but also some substantial and interesting differences.
dev37
31,071
Good luck with your studies.
dev37
31,072
My best regards to Mike; I learned a great deal working for him.
dev37
31,073
Rob Wilson@ENRON
dev37
31,074
Thanks for the update.
dev37
31,075
Congratulations on your progress.
dev37
31,076
Please do send it out.
dev37
31,077
Thanks for the kind words.
dev37
31,078
I know you know how I feel about your work and I have shared that view widely.
dev37
31,079
I have enjoyed working with you; I always valued your insights , your responsiveness, and your work ehtic.
dev37
31,080
I wish you all the best in your new role.
dev37
31,081
These are good fixes.
dev37
31,082
I still think it's important for our security people to be able to recognize all of our senior executives and make sure their guests get where they are going quickly.

Sherrie and Rosie: Jeff and Ken both received notes from Tom Delay about designating portions of their contributions for use in Texas.
dev37
31,084
Mr. DeLay would like them to make that designation using the letter below (note that it will need to be modified to be from each individually rather than a joint letter).
dev37
31,085
It is, of course, up to Ken and Jeff whether to make the designation.
dev37
31,086
Lou -- you may be maxed out on Franks now.
dev37
31,087
Don't write a check for the August fundraiser until you have talked to Eliz Labanowski
dev37
31,088
If you think this is worth pursuing, get in touch with Christie.
dev37
31,089
Offer him the job.

Rob Bradley@ENRON
dev37
31,091
What do you think?
dev37
31,092
I think you, or someone in your group, should cover this.
dev37
31,093
The attendees are operations focussed and may be interested in issues such as siting, interconnection and environmental issues.
dev37
31,094
Also, from a more macro perspective, what kinds of demands the new industry structure may place on operators -- the importance of flexibility in asset operations (ie the premium the market will place on quick response) or the challenges of different scheduling regimes between the gas and power markets.
dev37
31,095
Maybe we should knock down the walls of those cavernous offices on the topfloor.
dev37
31,096
I think it would be useful to verify their view that they are really only 2-3 years from commercial production.
dev37
31,097
Ideally, we could get that confirmation from someone familiar with the technology but without any financial interest in its success.
dev37
31,098
Their technology pitch sounded good, but I don't know enough to recognize the potential shortcomings.
dev37
31,099
I want to feel comfortable that you all feel this is real, then I would be happy to have me and my team spend some time with them.
dev37
31,100
I'd like to get about 30 minutes with Mark, just to catch up.
dev37
31,101
ditto -- nice work Rob.
dev37
31,102
Your insights on project stanley are also much appreciated.
dev37
31,103
Please revise the document as Aleck's changes indicate.
dev37
31,104
With respect to the alternative responses shown near the end of the document, leave both alternatives in.
dev37
31,105
See below.

this is one of the issues that concerned us more than price caps, because it could limit our ability to move power to other markets in the west.
dev37
31,107
In addition, if you get questions from the analysts on "reregulation" or price caps it is worth pointing out that the high prices prevailing in many markets help our retail sales pitch to end use customers and create opportunities for our wholesale price risk management services .

even a $250 price cap is 5-10 times what large customers are accustomed to paying.
dev37
31,111
See below.
dev37
31,112
This would have presented a bigger problem than price caps.
dev37

Tim -- Cindy manages this program.
dev37
31,114
Mary -- please give some thought to how we might solicit employee views on this.
dev37
31,115
Cindy -- I believe we already allow matching of donations to quasi-religious organizations: religious schools, for example, and perhaps relief organizations like Catholic Relief Services?
dev37
31,116
I think that if we want to consider extending it we should probably discuss it in a smaller group than the e-speak forum -- the Enron Foundation Board perhaps?
dev37
31,117
This could become controversial, though (recall the Planned Parenthood debate and the periodic attempts of shareholders to add restrictions through the proxy mechanism).
dev37
31,118
I think this is a good idea.
dev37
31,119
We may want to think about CNBC as well.
dev37
31,120
Brandon -- any technical obstacles?
dev37
31,121
Margaret/Cindy -- how does the link work?
dev37
31,122
does it go straight to the clip or do users have to navigate within CNN's site?
dev37
31,123
Are you aware of this?

Congratulations!
dev37
31,126
I won't be going.
dev37
31,127
Let's look for an alternate.
dev37
31,128
I'd be happy to come to DC.

Jon -- Ricardo Charvel is pulling together the briefing for Ken, so please share the EBS activities/ agenda with him.

Thanks
dev37

do we have a mechanism to survey employees?
dev37
31,132
Can we do a "scientific" poll?

Let's ask Jeff Hines(?), our opinion research guy, to put a few short questions together and send it out.
dev37
31,139
We may also want to include a link so people can view the commercials again before answering.
dev37
31,140
Also, I was talking with Beth Tilney today about our website (and the fact that every business unit now feels free to go do their own thing).
dev37
31,141
We thought it would be a good idea to add this topic to the brand conference (perhaps as part of an existing segment).
dev37
31,142
Interesting idea, but hard to see any near term benefit.
dev37
31,143
I would decline.
dev37
31,144
Please forward to Sue Walden and get her ideas.
