The Mineral Leasing Act may be the statute that governs--at least I'm
familiar with it as the statute governing the MMS onshore oil and gas royalty
program.  There are also statutes that cover hard rock mining rights and
surface (i.e., grazing) rights.  I'm not sure which one is the basis for
Greg's theories.   What you guys need is a real dirt lawyer.  Don't we have
any ex-EOG lawyers around?  There aren't any in ETS that I'm aware of that
know this stuff.  As to the RFP process, I have even less of an idea.  I hear
you on your instinct to give him the answer, but one of my goals is to hear
what MMS thinks its legal basis is for going after storage and forming my own
view of whether they are right or just blowing smoke.  DF

Subject: Re: MMS meeting sheduled for Friday afternoon Feb 9th.

I am doing some research on statutory authority to try to understand where
the 12.5% comes from.

Drew,

Any thoughts on where I might go to find out more about the MMS RFP process
because , if we understand it, we may be able to find a loophole.

I figure if we tell Greg what the answer is, he may be willing to accept it
as opposed to us asking him to find the answer and relying on his
interpretation


Just wondered since we had not heard from you, whether you are  still there in view of all that has happened with Enron. How is Scott  doing?

Hope to hear from you sometime soon.

Buster, Chris & Oliver

Pacific Gas and Electric Company Files for Chapter 11 Reorganization

Business Wire
04/06/01, 12:34p
(Copyright , 2001, Business Wire)

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 6, 2001--Pacific Gas and Electric
Company, the utility unit of PG&E Corporation (NYSE: PCG), today filed for
reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in San Francisco
bankruptcy court. The company said it is taking this action in light of its
unreimbursed energy costs which are now increasing by more than $300 million
per month, continuing CPUC decisions that economically disadvantage the
company, and the now unmistakable fact that negotiations with Governor Gray
Davis and his representatives are going nowhere.

Neither PG&E Corporation nor any of its other subsidiaries, including its
National Energy Group, have filed for Chapter 11 reorganization or are
affected by the utility's filing.

"We chose to file for Chapter 11 reorganization affirmatively because we
expect the court will provide the venue needed to reach a solution, which
thus far the State and the State's regulators have been unable to achieve,"
said Robert D. Glynn, Jr., Chairman of Pacific Gas and Electric Company. "The
regulatory and political processes have failed us, and now we are turning to
the court."

Glynn added, "Our objective is to move through the Chapter 11 reorganization
process as quickly as possible, without disruption to our operations or
inconvenience to our customers. Throughout this crisis, our 20,000 employees
have been and remain committed to providing safe and reliable service to the
13 million Californians who depend on us to deliver their gas and
electricity."

Pacific Gas and Electric Company decided to file for the protection of
Chapter 11 primarily due to:

   --  Failure by the state to assume the full procurement
       responsibility for Pacific Gas and Electric's "net open
       position" as was provided under AB1X. This has the result of
       increasing financial exposure to unreimbursed wholesale energy
       procurement costs, which the utility estimates to be
       approximately $300 million or more per month.

   --  The impact of actions by the California Public Utilities
       Commission (CPUC) on March 27, 2001, and April 3, 2001, that
       created new payment obligations for the company and undermined
       its ability to return to financial viability.

   --  Lack of progress in negotiations with the state to provide
       recovery of $9 billion in wholesale power purchases made by
       the utility since June 2000, which have not been recoverable
       in frozen rates.

   --  The adoption by the CPUC of an illegal and retroactive
       accounting change that would appear to eliminate our true
       uncollected wholesale costs.

"In addition, despite Pacific Gas & Electric's best efforts to work with the
State of California to reach a consensual, responsible, fair and
comprehensive solution to California's energy crisis, no agreement has been
reached with the Governor and the Governor's representatives have
dramatically slowed the pace and the progress of discussions over the past
month.

"Furthermore since last fall, we have filed comprehensive plans for resolving
this matter with the CPUC, but they have not acted affirmatively on them,"
said Glynn.

On October 4, 2000, Pacific Gas and Electric sought emergency rate action by
the CPUC. In November 2000, we filed our rate stabilization plan, which, if
adopted, would have increased electric prices by an initial 25 percent,
compared with the 46 percent recently adopted by the CPUC. Neither request
was acted upon. Had the state acted at that time:

-- Pacific Gas and Electric would have been kept creditworthy;

   --  Pacific Gas and Electric would have been able to enter into
       long-term power purchase contracts at prices lower than those
       announced by the state;

   --  The state would not have had to almost exhaust the state's
       budget surplus by spending billions of dollars to purchase
       power for the utility's customers;

   --  The state would not now need to issue billions of dollars in
       bonds to cover these power purchases; and

   --  The state would not now be advancing a proposal to spend
       billions of dollars to purchase the state's three
       investor-owned utility's electric transmission systems.

"This year, the state has spent more than $3 billion on power purchases and,
with the CPUC, has arranged to be reimbursed for these expenses," noted
Glynn. "In contrast, since June Pacific Gas and Electric Company has spent $9
billion in excess of revenues to pay for power for its customers and
exhausted its ability to continue borrowing, but there has been no progress
on a plan to reimburse it for those expenditures as provided by law.

"Statements by the Governor and other public officials since last September
gave us reason to believe that a solution could be reached outside the
context of Chapter 11 that would restore the utility's financial viability
and enable it to meet its financial obligations equitably. However, these
statements have not been followed up by constructive actions, and a
reorganization in Chapter 11 is now the most feasible means of resolution."

The utility will utilize existing resources to continue operating its
business during bankruptcy, including paying vendors and suppliers in full
for goods and services received after the filing. The utility will pay
electric commodity suppliers as provided by law. The utility intends to
continue normal electric and gas transmission and distribution functions
during the Chapter 11 process. Employees will continue to be paid. Health
care plans and other benefits for employees and most retirees will continue.
The utility's qualified retirement plans for retirees and vested employees
are fully funded and protected by federal law.

Feeling Powerless In
Consumers Grow More Anxious As They Are Cut Loose In Electricity's
New
Free Market
By KIRK JOHNSON

Aug. 27, 2000
New York Times
Page 29, Column 2
c. 2000 New York Times Company

   Over the last 20 years, a dogma has taken root in America that says
people would be happier and better off if they were all continually
shopping for the best deals. Consumers, according to this theory, should
be empowered and freed from the old business monopolies and the dictates
of fussy bureaucrats.

  So airlines were deregulated, and telephone service, and then the
Internet arrived, giving people the ability to choose from 10 different
sellers of the same merchandise. The bull market on Wall Street brought
5,000 mutual funds begging for attention. Having more choices became an
end in itself.

   But for millions of people, especially in New York and California,
the doctrine of the sovereign consumer has come into question this
summer around a commodity that most had taken completely for granted:
electricity. A recently deregulated energy market, which was
supposed to
increase choices and reduce prices, has, for most residents, done
nothing of the kind. Many community leaders and politicians, calling for
investigations and caps on rising electricity bills -- up 30
percent to
40 percent from those of last August in many areas -- have denounced
energy deregulation as either a failure or a fraud.
   Some social scientists say that the anxiety over energy is
exposing
something even deeper in the human wiring. At a time when protesters
have railed in Seattle and Washington against chain stores and global
branding, and prominent social critics have denounced the intrusion of
endless choice into every corner of life -- a phenomenon that Barry
Schwartz, a psychologist at Swarthmore College, calls ''the tyranny of
freedom'' -- the public's worries about electricity may say more
about
human nature than about kilowatts.
   Perhaps, this alternative theory says, there is a point at which
people no longer wish to be autonomous, rational consumers at all. Maybe
they would just as soon delegate their decisions regarding some
transactions, as they did when Consolidated Edison was the only game in
town and government was assigned to make sure that the company played by
the rules. Maybe when it comes to electricity, a mysterious and
dangerous thing that is also the foundation of modern living, Americans
are just a little afraid to be alone.
   ''In the past we trusted that state regulators who were appointed by
our elected officials were watching out for us, which may or may not
have been true,'' said Edward A. Smeloff, a former utility industry
official who runs a research group on electricity at Pace
University.
''The new model is, 'Figure it out for yourself.' ''
   Some economists and energy industry experts say the sense of
powerlessness and confusion that many people feel is perhaps as much a
source of anxiety and anger as higher electricity bills. The
players
have all changed and no one seems to be in charge.
   The old Brooklyn Union Gas Company, for example, still remembered by
many New York residents for the fuzzy, feel-good images of its
advertising, has become the cool and metallic-sounding KeySpan
Energy.
The old Con Ed, on the other hand, was like a crotchety grandfather who
sometimes had to be prodded and yelled at, but who nonetheless presided
over the system.
   The company now throws up its hands  and says it is not responsible
for recent price increases; Con Ed's wires are simply a delivery
mechanism for the unregulated corporations that own generating plants,
Con Ed's chairman said at a recent hearing at City Hall.
   Opinion poll takers say anxiety about deregulation may also have
something to do with a contradiction in the American psyche that they
say has opened up in recent years, a contradiction about what people
really want. Surveys conducted by Yankelovich Partners, a research and
consulting firm based in Norwalk, Conn., have said, for example, that a
majority of people want more control over the details of their lives,
but a majority also want to simplify their lives, a result that Barbara
R. Caplan, a partner at the firm, has called ''the paradox of our
time.''
   Deregulated energy arrived right in the middle of those
conflicting
goals; because only a handful of energy competitors have been
attracted
to the New York market, most people still do not have much choice in
their electricity, and yet it all seems more complicated than ever,
as
well as more expensive.
   Another factor, some researchers say, may be a result of timing.
People have had experience with deregulation, and they have seen that it
did not always unfold to their benefit. The hub-and-spoke system
developed by the airline industry, for example, has given airlines
near-monopoly power at many airports around the country, resulting in
less competition, not more. Consumers have also seen that although tools
like the Internet have made buyers more powerful in getting good prices,
corporations on the other side of the transaction have become more
powerful, too, in gathering information about them.
   ''Years ago, you went into an auto dealership and had to negotiate to
buy a car, but only the corporate side had knowledge of what the real
costs were,'' said Mark L. Gillenson, a professor of management
information systems at the University of Memphis. ''Now you go into the
Internet, and lots of places will give you that information for free.''
On the other hand, Professor Gillenson said, the data that corporations
are collecting about people are creating what the old car dealer could
never have imagined: knowledge about what people want before they even
ask.
   Lurking behind all those forces, some psychologists say, is the
growing sense that people are simply being asked to decide too much.
Economic deregulation has accompanied what may be called social
deregulation, as issues that were not even considered decisions in the
past  have become issues of conscious choice: whether to get married and
have children, or how to express oneself sexually, as gay, straight or
somewhere in between.
   And the more choices there are, the more it can seem possible to
achieve an ideal result in every case, leading to a doomed, treadmill
kind of behavior often seen in people who continually change their
long-distance telephone service as they endlessly seek an incremental
price advantage.
   ''Over what domains in life are you supposed to have control?'' said
Professor Schwartz, the Swarthmore College psychologist. ''Nobody gets
depressed when you can't control the weather, and years ago nobody got
depressed because they couldn't control your telecommunications or
electricity either, because those things couldn't be controlled,''
he
said. ''But now you can, or you're told that you can, and so you're
going to be continually frustrated.''
   And electricity is also just different. Unlike a telephone call,
or
an airline ticket, nobody ever really wants to buy electricity
itself --
rather, people buy its expression and result: a cold beer in the fridge,
a light to read by. By the standards of American marketing, it is barely
a product at all.
   ''People want to make choices about clothes and restaurants and what
houses they live in, but a lot of us would rather not be bothered with
having to make a choice about electricity,'' said Wendy Kaminer, a
public policy fellow at the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study in
Cambridge, Mass. ''It's not a desire to be disempowered,'' Ms. Kaminer
added. ''It's a desire not to be bothered.''
   Finally, some experts think that the long bull market for stocks, in
which share prices mostly just go up, has made people forget a
fundamental truth about how markets work: they are genuinely fair only
over the long run, while at any given time, there are likely to be as
many losers as winners.
   ''Deregulation and privatization were sold implicitly on the
assumption that everybody can win from this, but I'm hard pressed to
find an example in the real world where that has happened,'' said Willis
Emmons, a professor in the strategy, public policy and ethics department
at Georgetown University's business school. Right now, Professor Emmons
added, ''maybe somebody is winning, but it isn't the consumer.''

FYI - I had included Diane Seib and Melinda Whalen (from Calgary) in my
promotion memo from Energy Operations.  I believe that they both work under
Peggy Hedstrom in operational roles.  I am sure that they didn't mind having
their names included twice in promotional memos!

Peggy says that you and Juanita are headed to Calgary next week, and she
wondered if I would be coming.  I will be in South America in what should be
summer there.  I do plan to make a trip to Calgary soon.  In addition to
other things that Peggy and I have to cover, I plan to host a happy hour in
Calgary to honor Peggy's promotion and Diane and Melinda, also.  I hosted a
happy hour in Houston for Energy Operations employees who were promoted last
week, and I wanted to do the same thing for the three in Calgary.


Will there be a "buyback" deal for Shell Oil Company for Aug. 2000.

 Deal #: 138086 expired July 31st.


sounds good.  Have a great weekend.  GO BRUINS!

See attached.   In September 2000, Requisite filed for a $92 M IPO.
Requisite hosts content for some customers in Denver, but the majority of its
revenues are from licenses and contracts with SAP.  Based on negative net
income for the past few years, I am sure that credit would take a big margin
for these guys.  I was not able to find anything that mentioned who

We signed a contract with Requisite Technology (http://www.requisite.com)
Monday night to provide electronic cataloging tools for our SAP system
(they're replacing the i2Technologies products currently in place.

Requisite hosts catalogs for many major companies and digital marketplaces.
They have offices in Westminster, CO and Toronto.  John and I discussed the
opportunities Tuesday, and there may be one with EBS.  EES is probably less
likely, but it may be worth the investigation.

I know the VP of Sales, North America, so let me know if you're interested in
pursuing, and when.

Thanks.

All of the assignment documents are supposed to be filed in the contract
file.  Please review the contract file for these assignment effective dates.
The date something is invoiced has nothing to do with the tariff filings,
what is important is the delivery period and terms.  imbalance cashouts
should be reported as such under the transport tariff, not a sales tariff,
unless the transport does not provide for cash-out in which case a separate
sales tariff needs to be set up to go with the Sales Contract which should be
in the contract file.  Do you agree?

		 Subject: Missing Tariff Numbers on HPL Annual Report

Dan:  The following sales contracts were listed on the HPL Annual Report
without a tariff number.

Would you review the following information and advise as to whether a sales
tariff filing is required.  It appears that the transactions related to these
sales contracts took place prior to the time the contracts were assigned to
Houston Pipe Line Company.  Let me know if the tariffs we prepared to respond
to the Auditors query, should truly be included with our November 10th TRRC
Tariff Filing Report..

Contract #96022611:  H&D Operating Company - Gas Lift Sales:  Delivery period
01/99 Invoiced 9/10/99; Delivery period 02/99 Invoiced 10/12/99.   HPL needs
sales tariff for period after assignment.

Contract #96019866:  OXY USA. Inc. - Imbalance Cashout Contract: Delivery
period 03/99; Demand Charge Invoiced 3/26/99.  Why shouldn't this be under
the transport tariff for this transport imbalance.

Contract #96022610: Preferred Pipeline Company - GTC Sale Spot: Delivery
period 01/99 and 02/99; Invoiced 08/27/99. Who issued the GTC, if HPL, then
HPL needs to file a sales tariff.

Contract #96019865: Texcol Gas Services Inc. - Imbalance Cashout Contract
(Contract was set up per Tommy Yanowski relating to the imbalance on
Terminated Transport Agreement 12-88974-204  (311a2(284C)Offshore Tx);
Delivery period 02/99; Invoiced 03/25/99. Cashout under 311transport should
not require a tariff filing, however, it may require a FERC filing.

Contract #9600821: HPL Resources Company - Master Purchase Sale Firm.
Delivery period 01/99, Invoiced 02/12/99
Delivery period 02/99, Invoiced 03/24/99
Delivery period 04/99, Invoiced 06/10/99; 09/10/99
Accounting Summary Report of Manual Invoices recorded in the G/L for 01/99,
03/99, 04/99, 05/99, 06/99, 07/99, 09/99, 10/99, 11/99 and  12/99.
Do you know when this contract came back to HPL and should the tariff reflect
activity that took place prior to when it was assigned to HPL?  This
information should be in the contract file.  The tariff should not  reflect
activity prior to the time the contract was assigned to HPL.

I will need to get final information to Carla Nguyen by Monday October 30 so
she can make the appropriate notations to the annual report pages 31a2, 31a3
and 31a4.

Thanks for all your help!

Hi everyone,

We've just returned from a vacation to the Pacific
Northwest.  Some of you know because we visited you
there.  This is a picture of us at Crater Lake in
southern Oregon.  The trip was simultaneously
wonderful and sad.  We saw the greatest people and
most breathtaking scenery on our way to the funeral of
our friend Richard, a beautiful person who died after
a long battle with cancer.  I'm wearing his red sox
cap in the picture which has been returned to the city
from which it came.

Last week Maddie had her first birthday which was
attended by many family and friends.  Keep checking
the photo gallery for pictures from this event as well
as halloween trick-or-treating once we get the film
developed.  The web site is as follows:

http://www.ophoto.com/I.jsp?m=8098111503&n=1447007383

We've put up a few more vacation pictures as well.

Hope this finds you all well and enjoying life and
each other.

Love Adam, Nic and Maddie

My understanding is that the cap is $2500, but that the PX has filed with
FERC to change it ot $350.  My understanding is that FERC has not acted on
the request to change it to $350, but I could be wrong.  Dave, Mary, is this
your understanding?

Dave Parquet read a story we have for ENA's customer magazine, Exchange,
about California Power problems.

He says we may have the price cap wrong for the PX.  We have $2,500 for the
PX and $250 for Cal-ISO.

Are those figures accurate? He says the PX applied to FERC for a $350 cap.

Please advise ASAP as this publication has gone to press and I'm not even

Harry,

I spoke with Greg Manako with Exelon last week when you were on vacation.  He had the following comments regarding the HR options you were hearing about in the market place:

	1.  They are not sure of their long term perspective.  Thus, they are focusing on structures that are three years and less.

	2.  They are interested in June-September only

	3.  They are flexible on the size of the transaction (100-500 MW?)

	4.  They want to buy a 10-11 HR and sell a 6-7 HR.

	5.  They would like a financially settled transaction.

	6.  They would love hourly (virtual peaker) but would settle for daily.

Please let me know your level of interest.  I would like to get something back to them just to start discussions.

In addition,  I am ready to give MidAmerican Energy some indicative numbers whenever you get them.

Thanks,
Terri

Joe

We have had several conference calls since last Saturday. Perhaps you should
talk to Orlando and join us from now on. This subject is in state of flux.

As you know, those measures triggered a hostile reaction from D/Cs and from
Gs.

Aneel (Jose Mario and Jose Alves) called me on Saturday asking for help. We
discussed this subject internally over the weekend.

On Monday, Joao defended ANEEL in the COEX meeting. However, we were the only
ones. Other players were very angry. They perceived the action as pure
intervention (despite necessary and timely for most). ANEEL was informed
about the COEX reaction and thanked us for our position.

We examined the Resolutions in great detail. Unfortunately, it seems that
ANEEL went far beyond its institutional responsibilities. The substance is
OK. The format is legally weak.

Our strategy (we will try to sell to Abradee, CBIIE, COEX and ABRACEEL) is to
remove the spotlight from the legal arguments and propose to our industry
peers to focus on the design of a new Market agreement (to create a sense of
buy-in). We know that the changes will be only cosmetic. The basic principles
of the resolution should be maintained.

As per Enron's suggestion, I spoke to ANEEL again (Jose Mario and Jose Alves)
showing them how difficult the situation is. In our view, thard he only way
to validate the measures is to write a new agreement (Fred and Debora are
working on that). I was open in saying that the Resolution are weak from a
legal standpoint. They agreed with us. Publicly they say otherwise. They said
they are willing to negotiate. We also expressed our view to ANEEL that part
of the reaction is parochial: some COEX members will lose their jobs. ANEEL
agrees. That is why they are inviting all CEOs and Chairmen of the Board to a
meeting tomorrow, where ANEEL will explain what is happening and ask for
support from top management.

Why has ANEEL approached us? Perhaps two reasons: 1) They know we defend
markets 2) We wrote Informativo Regulat?rio # 3, attached (which basically
purports the replacement of COEX by a professional Board - I discussed those
issues with Rick Shapiro before the IR was issued to understand Enron's view
on power pool governance)

Your comments/involvement would be very important. It is a pretty delicate
and messy situation.

My personal view.

1) This was a necessary evil. MAE would not function otherwise. Our merchant
plants would be in jeopardy.
2) I would dare to say that this is a "window of opportunity" to get MAE
working (and therefore our long term strategy)
3) However, the way ANEEL did was disastrous. They should have acted long
before. (imposing gradual penalties). Now they suddenly "fired" 26 CEOs of
the largest utilities in Brazil
4) We should support ANEEL. However, it has to be in a very diplomatic way.
Orlando will take care of Abradee. Joao - COEX. S,rgio CBIEE. We have to walk
over a fine line. If we push to hard, they will reject Enron (together with
ANEEL's Resolution)
5) We should be the champions in drafting a new Market Agreement

Subject: MAE/COEX - ANEEL Resolutions

At the COEX meeting yesterday, it was clear from the lawyers presentation
that there are grounds to legally challenge ANEEL's resolutions. Some
romantic guys were kind of going in that direction.
My position  was to take the subject to a Market Assembly for the
shareholders to deliberate.
Also everybody knows, and some acknowledged,  that MAE governance was not
working. Our line of action at the Assembly would be to support the general
direction of the measures, and at the same time, preserve MAE autonomy,
opening a negotiable line with ANEEL.
The main point of discussion will be if we should discuss without going to
court or after challenging ANEEL in court.
The Assembly was called for next Thursday, April 26th.
Fred is going to talk to Luiz Maurer for us to have a deep exam of the
resolutions and see what points we can propose to ANEEL to improve. Also, in
that negotiable line, we should discuss/propose some names to the new COEX.
We need to discuss this subject tomorrow.

Jo?o Carlos


Good morning -

Just wanted to let you know that I've been running the stage version of the
Forward Obligation report using production data, and I seem to be getting all
the same numbers as I do with the production version of the report. I will
continue to compare the two today when I run these reports, just to make
sure. But in the meantime, all looks well. Thanks for your help.

    Thanks Kate,

    We were looking for somebody like you. You can run it with any settings,
   as you run it every day.  Make sure you see version 3.0.0.30.

    I think however it is better if you can run  the report against
production data
    because the test data are not good enough. I think David Poston created
    a shortcut on Cara's and Valarie's computers, you can talk to him to do it
    for you as well.

     The command from the command prompt should be:
      C:\Enpower\stage > FwdObl user_id user_password  pwrprodn_ded

I'd be more than happy to run a test of the new forward obligation report in
order for you to move it to production. I do use the application everyday

Please let me know if you'd like me to run the report and under what terms.

Business cards are a great way to share information about yourself and your company when you want to network with others such as clients, businesses, vendors, and so on.  But if you are communicating via email, what do you do? A handy solution is electronic business cards, called vCards (virtual business cards), which you can send and receive in e-mail using Outlook  Many other e-mail and personal information manager (PIM) applications can use vCards as well, not just Outlook. For more information on vCards, visit the Internet Mail Consortium at http://www.imc.org/pdi/vcardoverview.html
Note: vCards are not needed when communicating with fellow employees, since we already have access to the Outlook address book and Peoplefinder.
Settings Up Your vCard

1)  Verify Your Information
	- Open the address book ( )
	- Find and select your name
	- Double-click your name or click Properties
	- Is your information correct and complete?  If not, update it in eHRonline or contact your HR rep.
2)  Create an AutoSignature with your vCard
	- Close any open messages
	- Click Tools, Options, Mail Format, Signature Picker
	- Click New and then type "vCard" for the name
	- Click Next and then click New vCard from Contact
	- Find and select your name, then click Add ->, OK
	- Under the vCard Options section, change it from <None> to your name
	- Click OK, OK, Cancel  (make sure you click cancel or your vCard will be on every email you create)
Good job!  Your vCard is setup and ready to go.

Sending an E-mail with your vCard

	- Create a new e-mail
	- Click Insert, Signature, vCard to insert your vCard
	- Send your e-mail

Receiving a vCard via E-mail

If someone outside the company sends you a vCard, how do you quickly add it to your Contacts folder?

Well it looks close between our two fantasy football teams.  I'll pull for your players tonight if you cheer for ours.


We finally got the website up with photos and tunes.  Hope you have a chance to check it out.  It is at www.truebluegrass.com.   If you don't wish to receive True Blue mail in the future, please just reply with that info and we'll do our best to see that doesn't happen again.  Those of you who were at the Freight show last Sunday - thank you.  Your support was greatly appreciated.  The turnout was great at our first Bay Area appearance, and we look forward to doing it again.  Our next show in the vicinity will be in Davis in January - details to follow at a later date.  That's all for now!


Kristin Gandy is following up on this.  She's the new Carneige Mellon
recruiter.  Sorry about the delay.

==========On the McKinsey Quarterly Web site this month==========

What happened to the bull market?
By the time NASDAQ had maxed out in the recent bull market, many financial
commentators were claiming that something structural had changed in the
economy: new economics and the increasing value of intangible assets and
brands, among other things, were supposed to have replaced more
traditional factors in determining stock market valuations. Nice in
theory, perhaps, but wrong in practice. McKinsey analysis shows that the
traditional triumvirate of earnings growth, inflation, and interest rates
continues to drive stock prices.
http://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/ab_g.asp?ar=1104&nlink=21

Broadband media: Look before you leap
How long will it be before broadband for consumers revolutionizes
television and video entertainment? After all, some 40 million households
in the United States will gain access to broadband during the next three
to five years. But broadcasters and other programmers would do well to
temper their enthusiasm, at least for now: the time isn't right to invest
heavily in broadband programming.
http://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/ab_g.asp?ar=1100&nlink=22

Brains abroad
Where does global talent go when opportunities aren't sufficiently
plentiful at home? To the United States, of course. In the 1990s alone,
some 650,000 people from emerging markets migrated there on
professional-employment visas. This talent drain could have lasting
economic repercussions for the developing world, depriving it not only of
the skills of these workers but also of their beneficial effects on the
productivity of others.
http://www.mckinseyquarterly.com/ab_g.asp?ar=1101&nlink=23

Better UK productivity: An inside job
There is little debate that Britain's manufacturing sector is in decline
but less consensus about the reasons for it. A recent McKinsey study makes
clear that the problem isn't the quality of the country's workforce:
foreign-owned companies in Britain, drawing from the same pool of
frontline labor as their British-owned competitors, are achieving much
higher levels of productivity. The fault instead lies with British
manufacturing companies that have failed to adopt practices proved
elsewhere.

Dear Robert:

Craig Chaney asked me to review the proposed NDA that you forwarded to him in
anticipation of a meeting between Credit 2B and EnronCredit.com early next
week.  The NDA that you forwarded to Craig protects only Credit 2B as a
disclosing party.  After discussing this matter with Craig, I understand that
this relationship might rapidly evolve and require EnronCredit.com to
disclose confidential information to Credit 2B as well.  Accordingly, I
propose that in the interests of efficiency, we negotiate and finalize a
bilateral NDA up front.

I have thus prepared the attached bilateral NDA for your review and comment.
I have taken Enron's standard form of NDA and incorporated those provisions
of Credit2B's NDA to which I can agree.

I look forward to discussing any comments or concerns that you may have.
Craig would like to finalize this NDA by Friday.

Regards,

Leslie M. Hansen,
Senior Counsel
(713) 853-6121
