Sounded like the Paul I know and admire.
dev33
You sounded energized.
dev33
Looking forward to having you around more.
dev33
One thing.
dev33
Please don't count December out as a possible start time for the special session.
dev33
Anything can happen.
dev33
Book your hotel room early.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
There's a place for working and re-working.
dev33
There's also a a very important place in art--writing in particular--for spontaneity and whim.
dev33
I'd do a tweak here and a snip there, but quickly and only around the edges, and submit it as a film review.
dev33
It's novel, it's fun, and exposure'd a good thing.
dev33
Things are good.
dev33
Going to be weary for the next 3-4 weeks until schools out, though.
dev33
Best, Jeff

Rick: Just want to let you know that I missed the boat a bit in coordinating my reviewers with Paul.
dev33
In my first attempt to input them in the system, I hesitated including you for the simple reason that I'm certain you have countless other reviews to do already, and, frankly, I feel that you're an integral part of my review whether you're formally on the list or not.
dev33
When I went back to make my final additions to the list, the systerm was already closed--Paul had approved the first round, which I guess shuts it down.
dev33
It's likely not appropriate for reviews to happen outside the system, but I wanted to let you know that, from my perspective, it would be great to receive from you.
dev33
I'd value it a lot.
dev33
And I think we've worked closely enough together over the last year for you to have a basis for reviewing me.
dev33
But again, I'm of the view that irrespective of the list, you partake in my review of necessity, and I don't want to add any additional burdens to an already loaded schedule.
dev33
No big deal, just wanted to let you know.
dev33
And I'm having a field day filling out your review.
dev33
("Rick discriminates unfairly against neon-colored shirts.") Seriously, I was quite pleasantly surprised to have ended up as one of your reviewers.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
I threw out the green shirt.
dev33
Swear to god.
dev33
It's a never-ending cavalcade....
dev33
Here's the report that Sue referenced earlier.
dev33
Appears that the administration's analysis of California's energy problems will continue to focus solely on the "bad actor" conspiracy theory.
dev33
Congratulations.
dev33
And count me in. We're off to the races.
dev33
Best, Jeff And a very Happy Thanksgiving.
dev33
Here's what I need (thanks, honey): 3 bags of fresh cranberries 2 oranges box of brown sugar 6 jars of oysters 6 loaves of bread (get the "rounds" of bread---vary them, like olive bread, sour dough, sweet, whole grain, potato) thing of celery 4 large yellow onions couple bulbs of garlic 2 pounds of butter (clover, salted) Thanks, sweetie, and good luck on your midterm!
dev33
Forgive the tardiness.
dev33
As soon as I come up from air from completing a tidal wave of performance reviews, I'll give a full report.
dev33
Bottom line: His message is a very good one.
dev33
His delivery could use a tad spicing up, however.
dev33
Unfortunately, when I was free, he was in meetings, and vice versa.
dev33
So we never got to sit down and chat.
dev33
I'll fill you in more soon.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
I can attest to the fact that you hit the bulls-eye, dead center, sir, with your description.
dev33
But again, the message is great, and his written stuff, I think, is effective.
dev33
Your decision to help fund his participation was an extremely good one in the end.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
Don't hesitate to call and discuss further the "hard lessons" that I sent you.
dev33
I may want to amend the ISO RFP numbers just a wee bit, too, before (and if) you use them.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
Doesn't strictly qualify as an origination opportunity, but through a contact, I've met with some folks who have some pretty nifty network hardware/software that offers some interesting possibilities w/respect to network performance (optical routing technology).
dev33
I'd like to hook them up with network folks, both a technical and a commercial person.
dev33
Anyone suggestions?
dev33
Thanks.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
I'm forever indebted.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33
If possible, that would be perfect, and greatly appreciated.
dev33
could you please follow up with stephanie and let her know that i'd like to review?
dev33
thanks very much.
dev33
Sorry Stephanie, I meant to send the previous note to Joseph.
dev33
bet you're having fun.
dev33
are there comments that accompany Alan's tech piece?
dev33
thanks.
dev33
would it be a violation of interstate commerce to keep press from alberta from crossing the border into the states?
dev33
ok.
dev33
i'm on for stuffing and cranberry sauce.
dev33
Sure this is just what you needed.
dev33
Best of luck.
dev33
Best, Jeff
dev33

I'd leave a voicemail with Sandi (she's taking voicemail on her trip) and ask her if she'd like for you to contact them.
dev33
got your message.
dev33
a hearty congratulations on the portland general approval from ferc.
dev33
i'm chained to my desk doing reviews.
dev33
best, Jeff
dev33
Alberta?
dev33
I'm not sure which is worse, the story, or the timing.
dev33
You psyched about the FERC approval?
dev33
And is there a story behind the sale of Sierra's power plants?
dev33
Now wait one darn minute, lil' lady (do you hear John Wayne's voice?).
dev33
The price cap in California remains--that's right, remains--at a lofty $250/Mwh.
dev33
Thank you, Government Affairs.
dev33
Seriously, seems reportable, given that at one point it had moved to a time-differentiated cap.
dev33
plz try me again.
dev33
thx,jeff 415.782.7822
dev33
Agree that we should decline to participate.
dev33
I also got a call from IEP regarding the press conference and strongly encouraged them to signicantly diversify the group to include customers, consumer groups, and the like.
dev33
Haven't heard about the meeting on the first with the governor's staff.
dev33
Interesting that the administration is choosing to meet with folks on the day that the report is released.
dev33
For the same reasons that we wouldn't want to be grouped with generators at a press conference, we may not want to be grouped with generators when the staff disseminates the report's words of wisdom.
