Miss you guys terribly. | dev33 |
Don't throw me out of the club for being AWOL, please. | dev33 |
Hope to see you soon. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
most indebted. | dev33 |
let's talk about these notes prior to your drafting. | dev33 |
please give me a call. | dev33 |
Mary Beth: For what it's worth, I've read this, and if Laura Tyson or Larry Summers sign it, I have serious concerns about the effect it would have on their ability to play the role that we envision in moving our proposal forward (understanding that our odds of success are somewhat meager). | dev33 |
While I don't disagree with the language, it is strong and therefore very likely to make the Governor and his staff very uncomfortable. | dev33 |
I would recommend that they do not sign. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
I don't envy your position. | dev33 |
At some point, the document must be finished and folks need to determine whether they'll sign or not. | dev33 |
I greatly admire Rich Gilbert, but his comments (re: regulatory intervention is a good thing, and now this one) will surely create considerably controversy and could greatly upset the apple cart altogether. | dev33 |
Best of luck, Jeff Talked to Tyson. | dev33 |
She's really working it, which is great, and I continue to focus my efforts there. | dev33 |
My company is squarely behind her efforts. | dev33 |
Thanks again for organizing the meeting last weekend. | dev33 |
Haven't received anything. | dev33 |
Sounds like we all agree that it would be a good idea to do it. | dev33 |
I'll write the prof an email and ask him to email us the file. | dev33 |
My preference (in order to actually learn something--i'm sort of thick) is to work on these jointly rather than have one person do it each week, but i'm willing to discuss. | dev33 |
others have views on how we ought to write 'em up? | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Prof. Bajaj. | dev33 |
Our understanding is that we'll need the electronic file you talked about on Monday in order to do the first (optional) case (re: helpful questions and spreadsheets). | dev33 |
But we haven't received the file yet. | dev33 |
Could you possibly forward it to us? | dev33 |
We're leaning strongly toward writing the first case up and turning it in and are anxious to get started. | dev33 |
Thanks very much. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Tyson has had conversations with the Governor's office. | dev33 |
The Governor's office wants more information about what the meeting would "look like"/attendees, and has said that the idea sounds like one worth pursuing (but as we know, talk is very cheap with this Governor). | dev33 |
In response, Tyson and her very able helper are taking the 1.5-pager that I sent around and modifying it to describe the meeting optics/logistics/attendee attributes, etc. They will forward it to me as soon as they've got it drafted. | dev33 |
Tyson hopes the document will seal the deal on the Governor's participation. | dev33 |
In the meantime, Tyson is trading calls with Doer and trying to line up other business face cards to assist in getting the business community to the table. | dev33 |
Any help/suggestions we can offer gathering up business folks would be useful, but seems that Tyson's going to have to carry that water. | dev33 |
Tyson said based on her conversations with Summers, he's squarely on board. | dev33 |
The way we handled it last time was 1) have a quick chat about it, 2) split up the pieces, 3) once written, pass around the pieces to see if anyone has any strong feelings about what folks had pulled together, and then, for each case, 4) designate one person as the "assembler" of the pieces. | dev33 |
(We designated who would be responsible for which cases at the beginning of the semester.) And yes, all by email (save for, say, the preliminary chat). | dev33 |
It worked well. | dev33 |
But I'm flexible, if folks want to try another angle. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Took Kahn's place, who's now on the ISO Governing Board. | dev33 |
couldn't get thru on Hoffman's cell #. | dev33 |
Left voice mail for Thomas. | dev33 |
will let you know as soon as anything happens. | dev33 |
Nice job. | dev33 |
Thanks. | dev33 |
Greetings Mary Beth: I'm touching base to see how progress is coming on the document that's being prepared for the Governor's office. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Sorry to hear that. | dev33 |
I'll give you a call in the morning. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
Scott: Thanks. | dev33 |
These summaries are extremely well done and highly valued within the company. | dev33 |
Thanks for the great work. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
we know anything about this? | dev33 |
Hi Cindy: Mark asked me to give you these to fax to Mark at the Four Seasons. | dev33 |
Three things: Berkeley Academics "Manifesto"--very confidential My preliminary doodlings for a talk I'm giving at an EXNET conference in New York on Monday A one page "backgrounder" that Jim and I put together for the Bush transition team. | dev33 |
Thanks a million. | dev33 |
Jeff | dev33 |
Yes. | dev33 |
Mike Day: please make sure that Mike and Bob are in the loop on any and all filings. | dev33 |
Thanks very much. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
could you please fax this text to steve and mark? | dev33 |

The speaker introduced a bill that would: Order the CA PUC to establish a "rate component" to permit the utilities to recover its "net undercollected amount" over a period of ten years. | dev33 |
(Sounds like there may be a haircut in there somewhere.) Authorize the State Water Dept. to purchase power on behalf of utilities and munis. | dev33 |
Order the CA PUC to create a separate rate component to cover the Dept.'s cost of purchasing the power. | dev33 |
Authorize the Treasurer to issue debt, backed by ratepayers, to cover any difference between the price the Water Dept. buys the power for and the price that can be collected from ratepayers under the rate freeze. | dev33 |
Authorizes the State Director of Finance to "accept on behalf of the state any tangible asset of an electrical corporation." | dev33 |
(Presumably the state is looking to get something from the IOUs (say, the hydro assets) in exchange for giving the utility it's "net undercollected amount." The bill is long and haven't yet had a chance to review it in detail. We're faxing the bill. The bill will be controversial and it is unclear who in the Legislature has bought into it, though the Governor signaled his general support for this sort of approach in a press conference last night announcing the results of the power auction. The Assembly is scheduled to have a hearing on the bill later today. Will pass on more info as we get it. Jeff | dev33 |
Could you please make sure that everyone in the office has this call-in number. | dev33 |
It's a daily call to discuss California's electricity crisis. | dev33 |
Thanks very much. | dev33 |
call-in: 800.998.2462 code: 4912753 | dev33 |
I'll be in NY/D.C. | dev33 |
I'm willing to do by phone. | dev33 |
Thanks. | dev33 |
We'll have an internal call to discuss this prior to launching any missiles. | dev33 |
Jeanne, please have Mike give me a call to discuss. | dev33 |
Thanks. | dev33 |
Jeff | dev33 |
yep. | dev33 |
Joseph: Please contact these folks and remind them that 1) i'm not a lobbyist, 2) i'm not registered as a lobbyist, and 3) i don't qualify as a lobbyist. | dev33 |
thanks a million. | dev33 |
Jeff | dev33 |
David: Accusing market participants of "gaming," "strategic behavoir," "market manipulation," and the like will be extremely controversial, and, I believe, unconstructive. | dev33 |
As you may or may not know, much of the criticism was placed on the utilities strategic bidding on the demand side, which many "economists" and "consultants" seem quite willing and able to conveniently ignore. | dev33 |
Jeff | dev33 |
yes. | dev33 |
I'll put my mind to it (what's left of it). | dev33 |
Tomorrow morning (Saturday), I'll take a whack at building on what Mark's done and distribute to everyone. | dev33 |
FYI, I'm in New York on Monday so won't be in class. | dev33 |
Best, Jeff | dev33 |
I've still got considerable work to do, but wanted to make sure all had a chance to review and comment well in advance of finalizing. | dev33 |
