Steve, thanks for your service on an all volunteer EWEB Board. 
About % layoffs: 
1. At Gray’s EWEB’s Energy Future talk (7.16.12), Bob Cassidy asked about down-sizing: with 50 positions gone this past month, have we hit bottom, does everything else have to be covered by increased rates or lay offs?  (So, +/-10% layoffs took place in 1 month and some later.)

I am 99% sure media quoted upper management that 40% had been let go during the several year downturn by layoffs, attrition, retirement but reporting may have been inaccurate.

2. Roger Gray at a Rubicon lunch (last public talk he gave as a lame duck) cited the 40% figure from my recollection. He would never provide me a copy of his speech or notes so I apologize if I am wrong.

3. At EWEB’s work session minutes, reviewing cost drivers, Roger Gray said
 _they would have to lay off between 60 and 100 employees under one scenario._
10.19.10. Did this occur?

A problem with EWEB I observe: staff find it difficult to admit mistakes.
