I was thinking the easiest way to get us all together would be to get a room at a restaurant for 6 or 6:30 some evening.

I have contacted Beth and Cindy already, so they know what it is about, and I will leave messages for the others.
dev37
31,150
I just need to check schedules for now.
dev37
31,151
Also, I think it would be a good idea to have a get together after work once a month or so for the Public Affairs organization.

Talk it over with a couple of people in the group and let me know what you come up with.

I'm afraide this leaves too much room to manuever.

Having duties related to setting legislative affairs strategy and developing a plan for contacts on the Hill, will give Cynthia the idea that she can run all aspects of those duties, not just those related specifically to her substantive area.
dev37
31,162
I think it is also worth covering the heavy emphasis on teamwork and supporting, rather than directing, others in the organization.

Hey -- you're talking about our future President!
dev37
31,165
I am soooo looking forward to my next Biennial Resource Planning proceeding.
dev37
31,166
Tim I enjoyed meeting with you too.
dev37
31,167
As I mentioned, I thought your answers were thoughtful, well stated, and accurate.
dev37
31,168
In our line of work it helps to triangulate using others' insights and I found yours particularly useful.
dev37
31,169
I would like your insights.
dev37
31,170
Meredith, I'd like yours as well (particularly in light of the messageyou received from Lawson and Jefferson).

No, contact Rosalee Fleming (ken's assistant).
dev37
31,176
I let her know that you would be preparing the briefing.
dev37
31,177
I am interested, but it's probably more important that Jeff Dasovich and Sandi Mccubbin (in our SF office) know, so that they can keep the politicos informed (and keep them from doing something stupid).
dev37
31,178
Thanks Enron Energy Services

Tony Pryor (GPG legal) asked if we have any credentials/tickets left for die hard democrats in the company.
dev37
31,180
I know Tony will understand if they are already spoken for, but if we have some left that would go unused, we have a volunteer.
dev37
31,181
How's it going?
dev37
31,182
Are you partied out yet?
dev37
31,183
Jeff Shankman (COO of Enron Global Markets) is interested in going and would like to see the schedule.
dev37
31,184
I told him you would send it to him.
dev37
31,185
Jeff can also help us get our message across on the problems in California's power markets (Dasovich can fill you in).
dev37
31,186
Also John ( Woody) Wodraska, managing director of Azurix is interested in attending.
dev37
31,187
Please get in touch with him.
dev37
31,188
I haven't heard from Stan yet.
dev37
31,189
What about the "show cause" order route?
dev37
31,190
Palmisano left a couple of months ago to start his own business.
dev37
31,191
Jeff Keeler (in our DC office) is covering John's issues.
dev37
31,192
Also, you should contact Ken's assistant, Rosalee Fleming, to see when would be a good time to give ken a briefing and see what else he needs.
dev37
31,193
I have told Rosalee that you are preparing the materials for Ken.

I can hardly believe Peggy Noonan wrote this.
dev37
31,195
I'm a sucker for blatant heart string pulling.
dev37
31,196
I love it.
dev37
31,197
I'm misty.
dev37
31,198
Did you see Peggy Noonan's article?
dev37
31,199
Shapiro and I are getting misty eyed.

Please detach the attachment, combine it with the articles Gavin Dillingham sent me and attach to an e-mail to Robert Zoellick and Irwin Stelzer with this message from me: Attached is some background information on the "reregulation" crisis in California.
dev37
31,203
I'm afraid we have our work cut out for us.
dev37
31,204
We have been working the proces at the state and federal level in the past couple of weeks.
dev37
31,205
I continue to believe (hope)
dev37
31,206
Oops.
dev37
31,207
My computer sent the message before I was finished.
dev37
31,208
I continue to hope that there is more opportunity than risk in this for us.
dev37
31,209
Price volatility is in the news like never before and our main product is price risk management.
dev37
31,210
I know that the inquiries are up, I hope EES and ENA can get some sales out of it.
dev37
31,211
More utilities have been approaching TNPC, EES and ENA about taking over their merchant functions.
dev37
31,212
On the policy side, we are working the issue on both a state and federal level.
dev37
31,213
Whether this country does anything meaningful to deal with the current crisis comes donw to one person ...
dev37
31,214
Linda Breathitt.
dev37
31,215
Ken Lay spoke with Secy Richardson and Sen Schumer about proposing rulemaking initiatives to FERC.
dev37
31,216
We are working the RTO process hard elsewhere in the country and coming up with messages to arm our remaining allies around the country.
dev37
31,217
THis is the biggest time for us on this issue since the very beginnings in California and New Hampshire.
dev37
31,218
In the current panic, however, we will be decimated if we are associated only with a move to keep price caps from going into effect (I saw your message to Mona).
dev37
31,219
I am going to read the comments next, but I start off thinking we need to avoid running headlong into the price cap movement; we may be better off trying to co-opt the movement to get broader reform.
dev37
31,220
Hang in there.
dev37
31,221
The plan was to hit the issue twice -- once in the short format of Ebiz and at greater length in the longer format of the October issue of Enron Business.
dev37
31,222
Please let Paul know.
dev37
31,223
Please go ahead with preparation of the talking points.
dev37
31,224
I'll give Ken a heads up.

We'll have the usual macroeconomic update from Larry Lindsay and Gavyn Davies, the domestic political update from Bill Kristol and some presentations from Gary Hamel and others focussing on Enron NetWorks.

See attached WSJ article, particularly the last paragraph.
dev37
31,233
The message is: there has not been enough deregulation; the government is still very much in the way.
dev37
31,234
California is a perfect example: the market has responded to demand increases with thousands of megawatts of new generation, but state and local officials have not sited them, and companies like Enron are offering price protection, but utilities are not allowed to take advantage.
dev37
31,235
Have you solicited comments fromo EES?
dev37
31,236
I believe we should back Massey as well.
dev37
31,237
Who do we weigh in with now?
dev37
31,238
Probably not.
dev37
31,239
Let's communicate Breathitt's interest to Bone and stay out of it for now.
dev37
31,240
Thanks for the note and congratulations.
dev37
31,241
Sorry we didn't get a chance to talk before you left.
dev37
31,242
But, I'm still here; give me a call when you get a

In my interview I stressed that a big part of the communication problem is the narrow and impermanent nature of the information about what's going on at Enron.
dev37
31,246
Narrow because for every significant activity there are only a few who are in the loop and "impermanent" because very little information is committed to writing (most of it is exchanged in person or over the phone).
dev37
31,247
This is, I believe, what lies at the heart of complaints about cross-department communication.
