Here is my draft answer to the questions posed by one of the banks.  I am still chasing down some data, but wanted the group editing with me.  Would you please review ASAP so I can get up to Wes.  Keep in mind, these are the responses to Jeff M., not necessarily what they should or will share with the bank.  I think we should give them all the data points and let them judge what is disclosed.

1.  What effect of global slow down?  We believe that the current economic environment provides a good opportunity for RES given customers' desires to reduce/fix their exposure to commodity price volatility and meet budget and liquidity needs.

2.  How much of new business is tied to customer capital investment? To be sure we address the intent of this question we have three types of capital investment (i) Expenditures by customers - no new origination activity is contingent on customer capital expenditures (ii) RES internal capital expenditures - the only internal capital expenditures are approximately $10-15MM in Q4 2001 and $60MM in 2002 in IT capital expenditures (iii) We have, as part of our PRM Liability, forecasted expenditures for equipment at existing customer locations as part of our Demand Side Management (DSM) business.  For the next six months these expenditures total $______.   If not spent on schedule we would "lose" PRM asset value of approximately $____MM from loss of savings to be generated from these investments.

3.  What effect on business of CA decision to terminate retail access? Although unable to initiate new contracts within California, we believe that the renewal of existing contracts within Califonia will offset any losses experienced in that market and with the anticipated market openings across North America (especially Texas and Ontario in early 2002) there will be no negative impact to RES' growth.  Excluding California, approximately 26% of the retail electric market is open representing a total market size of approximately $56.1 billion.

4.  What is impact if order made retroactive? None, all contracts put in place have change of law provisions with liquidated damage language to protect RES' exposures.

5. What effect does slowing electric deregulation have? The pace of deregulation across the United States is uneven, however planned openings in 2001-2003 are adequate to meet RES near-term goals.  The California crises has increased customers' urgency in the marketplace and has reduced RES' customer acquisition costs.  Continued deregulation is important to our long-term strategy.  To counter the effect of the slowdown we have increased our product offering of Demand Side Management activities which bring value to RES and our customers in regulated environments.

6.  What is credit exposure to utilities, PX, ISO - if still can't get numbers is exposure changing, what about Retail direct access credit receivables.  What of ENE's $580 in receivables is "Allowable" - how much is contested?  We currently have approximately $_____ MM in "PX" receivable from utilities ($____ MM from PG&E and $_____ MM from SCE).  EPMI has a $____MM receivable from the California ISO.  PG&E is contesting $_____MM of our recorded receivable and SCE is contesting $____MM.  We have a total reserve of $_____MM established for these items.


You guys are stars.  Thanks so much for all you did for Prentice.  I think
she had a really, really good time and felt really neat about the whole
thing.  She's wonderful and you guys gave her the wonderful day that she
earned and deserved.  Thanks so much.

And, as usual, thanks for being great hosts yesterday (Nancy, you outdid
yourself with dinner).

OK, so I am doing everything that I can to leave for the Dome Wednesday
night.  If you guys want, we can pack up the Suburban with everything that
needs to go up ( or at least just about everything), and we can drive it up
and then you two can take my SAAB up.  Then, coming back, you can drive the
Suburban and I can drive the SAAB.  What do you think?

Finally, Eldon, do you have the Blue Book at your house?  I'm looking for the
number of someone I can get to haul away all the crap (junk from around the
generator shed, that rotten ol' pile of wood by the driveway, the
un-salvagable wood from the old deck, etc.).  Can you find a couple "hauler"
numbers in there and send me the numbers?  Thanks a million.

Best,
Jeff


Call id you have any discrepancies.  Thanks


Everyone,

This is hot news showing that the CAISO/CDWR relationship is even more cozy than we thought.  I am not sure how to best use this information, but this scam needs to be brought to the public's and FERC's attention.

1.  According to two sources, the CAISO is helping to bail Gov. Davis out of his high-priced CDWR long-term power contracts by purchasing CDWR's excess energy as an "Out Of Market" purchase---instead of purchasing real-time energy from the CAISO's Supplemental Energy auction as required by the CAISO Tariff.  The costs of purchasing this high-cost power is being charged to Scheduling Coordinators who are largely unaware of the CAISO's surreptitious transactions.

2.  This sweetheart deal violates the CAISO Tariff, which requires the CAISO to buy energy from its Supplemental Energy (Real-Time) auction first.  CAISO Tariff, Dispatch Protocol section 8.6.2 (d).  Only after the CAISO has used up the Supplemental Energy  bids, can the CAISO buy Out Of Market ("OOM") energy.  If the CAISO were following the Tariff, CDWR's excess energy would be treated as an uninstructed deviation and CDWR would be paid the clearing price for Supplemental Energy---which is often as low as $0.00.  Therefore, under the Tariff the CAISO could have paid CDWR the same price paid to other SCs, but instead is buying it at a price agreeable to CDWR.

3.  By ignoring Supplemental Energy bids in favor of CDWR power, the CAISO is able to manipulate the price it pays for energy in the Supplemental Energy market.  Low CAISO demand for Supplemental Energy drives down prices.  The clearing price for Supplemental Energy has often been as low as $0.00.  Therefore, the CAISO gets to keep all excess energy on the grid for free.  If CDWR was not getting preferential treatment, its energy would be treated as excess energy, and it would get little or nothing for it.

4.  While there is no evidence that Gov. Davis has directed the CAISO to buy from CDWR first, this behavior clearly benefits Davis.  Absent the CAISO's purchases of CDWR's excess energy, CDWR would be forced to sell its energy at a huge loss in the open market (just like many other suppliers).  The media has been been making hay out of Davis's strategy of buying high and selling low.  Therefore, Davis and CDWR benefit by being able to offset some of their losses under the long-term contracts.  Of course, they are only able to offset their losses through a back-door deal with the CAISO.

5.  The costs of this expensive CDWR power are being passed through to unwitting Scheduling Coordinators who, frequently seeing 10-minute Ex Post prices of $0.00, expect that the cost of imbalance energy will be close to $0.00.  These SCs are in for a big surprise.  According to one source at Sierra Pacific, the CAISO charged him as much as $400/MWh for imbalance energy.  (Where is the price mitigation here?)

6.  Who benefits under this scam?  Davis and CDWR.  Who loses under this scam?  In-state generators who are currently obligated to sell to the CAISO; Scheduling Coordinators who overgenerate or that have negative imbalances; consumers who end up paying higher prices for energy.

7.  Sources:  Our client representative from the CAISO has confirmed this practice and "the Friday Burrito," an industry insider publication mentioned it also.

8.  Here is the quote from the Friday Burrito:

"There is another problem that is being introduced by the long-term contracts. The ISO is utilizing the DWR contracts as Out of Market (OOM) calls, thereby forcing the contract energy into the grid ahead of the supplemental energy bids in the balancing energy ex post (BEEP) market. As one of our faithful observers told me, "The ISO will be billing some DRW/CERS long-term contracts to SCs as OOM energy. This has been confirmed by the ISO. This means there is no real-time price transparency. We may see an hourly ex-post price of, say, $15, but this will bear no resemblance to the eventual Real-Time settlement price. There is no way to estimate what the OOM charge was as the ISO doesn't post that information. The implication is that parties buying real-time energy will wait 90 days before theyhave any idea of the price. This sort of price uncertainty is completely contrary to the FERC's goals of creating open, transparent markets."
9.  Here is the e-mail from our CAISO representative:

Can you send me a copy of the 'Burrito' that we were discussing, or at

CERS and what was published?   What is the official name of this
newsletter?  I have seen them in the past (Harvey Hall used to get it
and sent a couple to me), but I haven't seen it for a long time.

Also, to recap our telephone discussion:  the charges assessed to the
Market in Charge Type 487 are determined by CERS, and are being
collected by the ISO on behalf of CERS, to cover the cost of contracts
that CERS has signed for energy purchases? and 487 pricing/charges have

those who inadvertently over- or under-schedule?  Please clarify that I
have understood this correctly.

Thanks a lot for your assistance.

Subject:	487 Revelation

Steve,
	Here is a summary of what we have learned regarding how the CAISO is handling 487.  Kent at Sierra Power inquired to me why he was being charged 487, (487 is the charge code the CAISO uses when it has to go out of market, and purchase power that exceeds $150.00/mwh, 481 is the charge code they use to credit it back), for the same hours and intervals that both the INC and DEC prices were zero.  This was obviously very peculiar and nobody in VM knew the answer. So Caroline posed the question to Keoni at the CAISO.  His response was this:  that the CAISO is charging 487 regardless of the INC and DEC prices, to cover the forward market contracts signed by CDWR and CERS.  In effect, they are ignoring their tariff that states they are supposed to purchase power at the lowest price, and are in effect trying to recover costs for CDWR and CERS.

Subject: Re: Desk-to-Desk v. Cross-Portfolio

I just sent Kroum a little missive on our familiarity with the "killed"
feature, as well as why we often zero out deals (Transmission in particular)
in scheduling only. If I have to teach a course on scheduling for him to
understand how to build this report I will do it, but I am not really dying
to do that.

As far as our situation here, If you can properly kill a deal, you should do
that instead of just zeroing the volume. I quite often have great success
having many terminal server sessions open at once, and doing the slow stuff
through a few different channels of TS.  Even as we speak, I am running one
report for 6 different months, 1 in each of the 5 terminal severs, and one
locally.  I learned that trick in our old winframe system, and it has served
me well.

I have torn my hair out over this cross-portfolio vs cross-desk thing.  I
have explained it to both Kroum, Duong Luu, and Will each at least 3 times.
How hard is it to get the concept that anything we sell to ourselves is not a
physical deal?

I would say just keep sending them to me, so we don't all have to pull our
collective hairs out. The deal you reference below is kind of like a life
preserver thing. When the market makes a sudden move, it is sometimes faster
to 'hit' the deal through EOL then pull it on the traders side.  It's not the
best way to go, but better than losing a bunch of money.

Subject: Desk-to-Desk v. Cross-Portfolio

I'm not quite sure how this exchange began, but it sounds like Kroum is
referring to several different issues here. First of all, our forward
obligation report does not reflect cross-portfolio deals, an application
issue that Will Smith, and it looks like Kroum as well, has been working on
for the past few weeks.

Also, deal 498488 is a forward deal done on EOL between STSW and their own
desk. I haven't seen a trade WITHIN a desk before, but I'm sure anything is
possible. At any rate, this doesn't look like a cross-portfolio deal at all.
Am I missing something?

As for the zeroed out deals, I'm pretty sure everyone here knows how to
properly kill deals in Enpower; however, it takes so long that sometimes we
simply zero out the volume in the interest of time. I've often wondered if
this litters the system and makes it more confusing for other people to do
their jobs - do you know anything about that?

I just thought I'd ask these questions while the subject was being raised.
Please let me know if I can help facilitate these changes or improvements in
any way.

Thanks,
Kate

             Cara,

      I think the report should work that way even now.

     I think I found a deal like that 498488 between EPMI Southwest and EPMI
Southeast,
     Region R7, please take a look at that when you test the report.

       I saw lots of deals on the report with volume 0 and price 0, they were
entered that way
       in Portland. There might be another reason, but I think someone wanted
to kill the deals.
       There is an option in Deal Entry to do that, if one opens a deal and
right click with the
       mouse on the status (Done), one can kill a deal.

The "two sides of a cross-portfolio deal" language is a bit vague and
misleading. A cross-portfolio deal is kind of like a desk to desk deal.
Another Enron book has traded with one of ours.

Two important things need to happen with cross-portfolio deals.
 1. They need to only show on the forward obligation report when "Desk to
Desk" is selected.
 2. They are only financial in nature, no physical delivery is ever done
cross portfolio.

I don't think "both sides" is correct. We need to only see our buy or our
sale when we query for our point.  When the other portfolio queries their
stuff, they should see their side.

Subject: PGE legal report

Jim, I need to apologize and confess I skipped the call this morning because
of an uncontrollable addiction to the Presidential election proceedings.
David Boies and Barry Richards were just too much to pass up.  Sorry.
Not much here.  We settled the Beaver lease cases at the same price we paid
the other lessors and without any of their attorney fees.  Good result.  We
have FERC approval of the Sierra sale.  SEC looks good for Jan or Feb.
I am working with Richard Sanders and Robin Gibb on defense to the California
class actions.
We have a new offer from BNFL that will be the subject of a conference call
soon.  Looks like they will pay us about 75% of our damages to go away.
One new risk is the upcoming cold spell and very high Northwest prices.  This
will cost us a lot of money, possibly not recoverable from customers, and may
spread the litigation over high prices to the Northwest.  This could develop
as a risk to the Sierra sale in the extreme, but right now appears manageble.
More on this as it develops.  The Enron litigation team is here on Monday and
we will cooperate on strategy and resources as prudent.
Finally, we have received a settlement offer on the Grant County case that
looks good and we are pursuing it.  Al.

				New face for Japan

				AP

				Junichiro Koizumi became Japan,s prime minister after winning the clear
support of the Liberal Democratic Party, the main partner in the ruling
coalition.

				See article: Japan,s new prime ministerE+

				Having annoyed the Chinese by agreeing to sell destroyers, submarines and
much else to Taiwan, George Bush further upset them by stating that America
had an obligation to do &whatever it took8 to help the island defend itself.

				See article: Arms for TaiwanE+

				Joseph Estrada, the deposed president of the Philippines, was taken to jail
pending his trial on corruption charges.

				See article: Estrada arrested in the PhilippinesE+

				India and Bangladesh were reported to be sending extra troops to their
ill-defined border after the deaths of 19 Indian soldiers in a skirmish.

				Australia is considering cutting the quota of 12,000 asylum-seekers it takes
each year because thousands are entering the country illegally.

				Scott Waddle, the captain of an American submarine that sunk a Japanese
fishing boat with the loss of nine lives, was reprimanded for not following
&proper procedures8. He left the navy with his rank and pension intact.

				Independence delay

				Parties wanting independence for Montenegro, the junior partner with Serbia
in the Yugoslav federation, won a general election but failed to win the
two-thirds of the seats in parliament needed to change the constitution. It
is unclear if and when a referendum on independence will take place.

				See article: More uncertainty in the Balkans

				The French government announced plans to oblige any employer laying off 1,000
or more workers at a time to pay double the present amount of severance pay
and offer six months of retraining.

				See article: Rewriting French labour lawE+

				AP

				In a bid to draw attention to Chechen rebels fighting for independence from
Russia, a dozen gunmen, most of them Turks, took around 120 people, most of
them foreign, hostage in a hotel in Istanbul, but later released them
unharmed. The gunmen were put in prison.

				Ukraine,s parliament voted out the country,s pro-western reforming prime
minister, Viktor Yushchenko.

				See article: Ukraine,s reformer goesE+

				Reform of the EU,s common agricultural policy was set back when a majority of
EU farm ministers rejected a plan gradually to remove subsidies from
sugarbeet growers.

				Plot thickens

				Internal quarrels within South Africa,s ruling party broke into the open.
Steve Tshwete, the security minister, said that three of the most prominent
ANC members outside the government, Cyril Ramaphosa, Tokyo Sexwale and
Mathews Phosa, were under police investigation regarding an alleged plot
against President Thabo Mbeki.

				See article: South African scandalsE+

				At a conference on AIDS, attended by some 50 African heads of state, the UN,s
secretary-general, Kofi Annan, called for a war chest of $7 billion-10
billion a year over an extended period. More than 25m Africans live with HIV
but current spending on the epidemic in poor countries is only $1 billion a
year.

				The heads of Nigeria,s army, navy and air force all retired amid speculation
that President Olusegun Obasanjo might be trying to rid the armed forces of
men loyal to the previous regime.

				Israel imposed a total blockade on the West Bank and Gaza before its
independence celebrations on April 26th. Earlier violence brought the death
of an Israeli doctor in a suicide bombing inside Israel and that of a
12-year-old Palestinian at a funeral in Gaza.

				See article: Israeli settlements and the intifada

				A feminist writer, Nawal el-Saadawi, risks being charged with apostasy in
Egypt for calling for the abolition of the Islamic inheritance law, and for
criticising the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. But a French court has thrown out
a case brought by the presidents of Congo-Brazzaville, Chad and Gabon against
Fran?ois-Xavier Verschave for writing a book criticising their regimes.

				At the summit

				EPA

				The leaders of 34 countries met at the third Summit of the Americas in Quebec
city. All of them except Venezuela,s Hugo Chavez backed plans for a
free-trade area of the Americas by 2005, and to exclude from future summits
any country in which democracy had been overthrown. Some 25,000 opponents
demonstrated against free trade. A few hundred battled police.

				See article: Free traders meet in QuebecE+

				Bob Kerrey, a former Senator and presidential candidate, admitted that he led
a mission in the Vietnam war that killed at least 13 unarmed civilians.

				The United States suspended its drugs-surveillance flights in Latin America
after a civilian aircraft was shot down by the Peruvian air force, killing an
American missionary and her baby. An American spy plane had identified the
aircraft as possibly carrying drugs, but American officials blamed Peru for
the incident.

				The United States Supreme Court ruled that individuals could not sue states
to prevent infringements of federal civil-rights regulations. The suit was
prompted by Alabama,s English-only driving exam which contradicted federal
discrimination laws.

				A former Ku Klux Klan member went on trial in Alabama charged with a 1963
church bombing that killed four black girls. The bombing came only months
after Governor George Wallace had proclaimed &segregation forever8 at his
inauguration.

				Mexico,s Senate unanimously approved a constitutional bill granting autonomy
to 10m Indians, in an important step towards peace talks with the Zapatist
rebels.

				Argentina,s president sacked the central-bank governor, ostensibly over a
money-laundering scandal. The new governor, Roque Maccarone, is close to
Domingo Cavallo, the economy minister.

 FERC To Examine Alleged Market Manipulation By Calif ISO 	 Dow Jones <http://quicken.excite.com/images/DJBN.gif>

By Jason Leopold

Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES

LOS ANGELES (Dow Jones)--Federal energy regulators may investigate whether the operator of California's wholesale electricity market has been manipulating its power-purchasing practices to reduce the costs of power the state purchased under long-term contracts, according to documents obtained Friday by Dow Jones Newswires Friday.

At issue is whether the California Independent System Operator has violated its own market rules by purchasing expensive power secured by the state under contracts rather than cheaper power available in the spot market. The state's need to sell off surplus power secured under those contracts has proven embarrassing for Gov. Gray Davis, who signed $43 billion in deals to head off a summer of spiking prices and blackouts that never materialized.

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission will hold a meeting in California Monday to address generators' complaints. The energy companies say that the California ISO's purchasing decisions are difficult to comprehend and out of line with the market, according to a letter sent by Andrea Wolfman, lead FERC counsel for market oversight and enforcement.

The letter was sent to the ISO, the California Department of Water Resources - which has been buying power in lieu of the state's struggling utilities since mid-January - and several generators, all of which were to attend the meeting.

"Recently we have become concerned that the scheduling and dispatch procedures of the California ISO, as they have had to change in the last nine months, are not well understood or are not well suited to the current market structure," Wolfman said in her letter. "The purpose of the meeting is to develop agreement between the ISO and those that participate in the scheduling and dispatch (generators, utilities, CDWR) on appropriate practices and procedures."

ISO Procedures Need Explaining -FERC

The ISO's main responsibility is keeping power supply and demand in balance on the state's electrical grid. As part of that job, the ISO determines which power plants to call into service and which suppliers to buy power from.

If the ISO can't explain how it makes its decisions, FERC may conduct an audit of the organization and investigate the possibility it has manipulated the market, Wolfman's office said.

"As discussed, FERC may schedule a technical conference and operational audit of CAISO," a second letter from FERC's market oversight and enforcement division states. "This unprecedented examination of CAISO operations could lead to the belief that complaints by generators of market manipulation and other practices by the ISO should be investigated."

The ISO's operating rules generally call for it to purchase the cheapest power first.

"The information that (generators) have provided all leads to a theory that the CAISO is manipulating the market in order to purchase surplus DWR power at high prices and protect Gov. Davis from political embarrassment," the second letter says.

The ISO has said only that the market isn't operating as intended, and declined to answer other questions about the allegations or discuss Monday's meeting.

Generators Confused

Generators, including Mirant Corp. ( MIR <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/quotes/?symbol=MIR>, news <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/news/?symbol=MIR>, msgs <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/discuss/?symbol=MIR>), Reliant Energy Inc.

( WMB <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/quotes/?symbol=WMB>, news <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/news/?symbol=WMB>, msgs <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/discuss/?symbol=WMB>), Duke Energy ( DUK <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/quotes/?symbol=DUK>, news <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/news/?symbol=DUK>, msgs <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/discuss/?symbol=DUK>) and Dynegy Inc. ( DYN <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/quotes/?symbol=DYN>, news <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/news/?symbol=DYN>, msgs <http://quicken.excite.com/investments/discuss/?symbol=DYN>), have bought apparently inexpensive power in the ISO's spot market only to find weeks later that the price was much higher. That's because, according to the allegations, the ISO is letting DWR supply expensive power into the market as "out-of-market" purchases that aren't averaged into the real-time prices that ISO market participants see.

DWR continues to buy out-of-market power regularly at the ISO's request, DWR operations chief Pete Garris has said, but those purchases are being made in the spot market and are never being satisfied by power from DWR's long-term contracts.

The out-of-market purchases appear to be expensive, however. According to the ISO's August market report, the average out-of-market price for peak hours was $55.90 a megawatt-hour, compared with $26.49/MWh on the ISO computerized market. Brokered prices of western electricity have been lower than the out-of-market prices for months.

None of the companies mentioned was willing to comment on the record.

The meeting is scheduled to be held at the ISO's headquarters in Folsom, Calif., and representatives from power producers, utilities and the state are expected to attend. FERC will serve as facilitator, Wolfman said. The meeting isn't open to the public.

The meeting will begin with a presentation by the ISO on its practices and operational procedures, followed by adjustments that may be needed to improve the market.

"The objective is to develop a written set of procedures that is agreed to by all the market participants and that is consistent with good utility practices," Wolfman said in the letter.

                THINGS THAT IT TOOK ME FIFTY YEARS TO LEARN
                                                            (by DAVE BARRY)

1. Never under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the
same night.

2. If you had to identify, in one word, the reason why the human race has not
achieved, and never will achieve, its full potential, that word would be
"meetings."

3. There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."

4. People who want to share their religious views with you almost never want
you to share yours with them.

5. And when God, who created the entire universe with all of its glories,
decides to deliver a message to humanity, He WILL NOT use, as His
messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle.

6. You should not confuse your career with your life.

7. No matter what happens ... somebody will find a way to take it too
seriously.

8. When trouble arises & things look bad, there is always one individual who
perceives a solution & is willing to take command. Very often, that person is
crazy.

9. Nobody cares if you can't dance well. Just get up and dance.

10. A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person.

11. Never lick a steak knife.

12. Take out the fortune before you eat the cookie.

13. The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender,
religion, economic status or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we
ALL believe that we are above average drivers.

14. You should never say anything to a woman that even remotely suggests that
you think she's pregnant unless you can see an actual baby emerging from her
at that moment.

I may be wrong, but trying to follow the press and Houston-originated
e-mails, I am under the impression that FERC has issued an order finding that
California prices were NOT unjust and unreasonable, and that generators did
NOT abuse marketpower in recent price setting exercise, and that there may be
a California PUC order relevant to the recent price flare up.  Any way, as
Jeff will know, a UK academic is going to be presenting in Berkley and Tokyo
later this month, arguing that hogan and Joskow are wrong about the value of
retail competition, and he expressed an interest in being current on recent
agency pronouncements.  To make this long story shorter, are there
citations/references to such orders that I could provide to the good
Professor (admittedly doing a bit of his work for him, but hopefully by being
current his message will be more on)?  If yes, can I get the FERC cites (and
web reference) from Joe or Sarah, and any California PUC order citation (and
web reference) from Jeff?   many thanks  mcs

Hi Fred and Suzanne,

I'm sending this to Suzanne so she can make these changes.  Suzanne, you'll
find the document attached to an email I received from Fred on July 11,
entitled Kendall New Development LLC.

Here's my comments on the ComEd agreement:

4.  Change 100,000 to 50,000 (right, Fred?)

5.  Add "and the purchase order or contract will be assigned to Customer (or
Customer's designee) at Customer's request, including the warranty provisions
of such purchase order or contract" after costs on the 7th line.

9.  Add "for the purpose of performing its Scope of Work" to the end of the
sentence.

10.  Add "internal and external" before legal counsel on 5th line.

16.  Add "Customer may assign this Agreement to an affiliate without consent"

I'll be checking in.

Thanks,

Kay

To Mr. Ken Lay,

I'm writing to urge you to donate the millions of dollars you made from selling Enron stock before the company declared bankruptcy to funds, such as Enron Employee Transition Fund and REACH, that benefit the company's employees, who lost their retirement savings, and provide relief to low-income consumers in California, who can't afford to pay their energy bills.  Enron and you made millions out of the pocketbooks of California consumers and from the efforts of your employees.

Indeed, while you netted well over a $100 million, many of Enron's employees were financially devastated when the company declared bankruptcy and their retirement plans were wiped out.  And Enron made an astronomical profit during the California energy crisis last year.  As a result, there are thousands of consumers who are unable to pay their basic energy bills and the largest utility in the state is bankrupt.

The New York Times reported that you sold $101 million worth of Enron stock while aggressively urging the company's employees to keep buying it.  Please donate this money to the funds set up to help repair the lives of those Americans hurt by Enron's underhanded dealings.

Sincerely,

Shirley Davis


I want you to go to Forida with me!

Hey!  How was DC?  Did JV get to meet the woman of his dreams?  Megan went to
NYC for the week - its her spring break.  I am finding out whether I can send
your parents the tickets early or if we will meet them at the "will call
window" at the RCA Dome.  These are box seats so I don't know if we can get
them earlier or not.  Looks like it going to be a very interesting Final
Four.  See ya!

Gregg and Steve,

I think that we should add the phrase "or any increases to the MTV as a
result of Buyer's Deficiency Quantity"  that you added in Nicor.  I left a
message for the Coral attorney this morning.  I am planning on telling him
about the addition of the phrase when he calls.

Stacy - one quick question regarding the Coral Transaction Agreements, is it
your interpretation that the fuel charge, 1.7%, would also apply to the
credits to the MTV resulting from our non-perfomance?  We tried to make that
more specific under the Nicor agreement.  Steve has discussed the concept
with Coral and they seem to be fine with it.  However, Coral's only change to
the fuel charge language was including the term "sold".  Do you think this is
sufficient, or should we be more specific?

Thanks - Gregg


How do you feel about making Enron an advisory member of the Marketing
Committee?  I'm concerned that we will run afoul of Miss law regarding
control.  Would this create a problem for us?

Kay

Who did it?     Foreign Report presents an alternative view

Israel's military intelligence service, Aman, suspects that Iraq is the
state that sponsored the suicide attacks on the New York Trade Center and
the Pentagon in Washington. Directing the mission, Aman officers believe,
were two of the world's foremost terrorist masterminds: the Lebanese Imad
Mughniyeh, head of the special overseas operations for Hizbullah, and the
Egyptian Dr Ayman Al Zawahiri, senior member of Al-Qaeda and possible
successor of the ailing Osama Bin Laden.

The two men have not been seen for some time. Mughniyeh is probably the
world's most wanted outlaw. Unconfirmed reports in Beirut say he has
undergone plastic surgery and is unrecognisable. Zawahiri is thought to be
based in Egypt. He could be Bin Laden's chief representative outside
Afghanistan.

The Iraqis, who for several years paid smaller groups to do their dirty
work, were quick to discover the advantages of Al-Qaeda. The Israeli sources

claim that for the past two years Iraqi intelligence officers were shuttling

between Baghdad and Afghanistan, meeting with Ayman Al Zawahiri. According
to the sources, one of the Iraqi intelligence officers, Salah Suleiman, was
captured last October by the Pakistanis near the border with Afghanistan.
The Iraqis are also reported to have established strong ties with Imad
Mughniyeh.

"We've only got scraps of information, not the full picture," admits one
intelligence source, "but it was good enough for us to send a warning six
weeks ago to our allies that an unprecedented massive terror attack was
expected. One of our indications suggested that Imad Mughniyeh met with some

of his dormant agents on secret trips to Germany. We believe that the
operational brains behind the New-York attack were Mughniyeh and Zawahiri,
who were probably financed and got some logistical support from the Iraqi
Intelligence Service (SSO)."

Mughniyeh was the only one believed to have tried it before. On April 12th
1997, he was reported to be only two hours away from achieving the highest
goal of any terrorist organisation (until last week): blowing up an Israeli
El-Al airliner above Tel Aviv. A man carrying a forged British passport with

the name Andrew Jonathan Neumann was in a Jerusalem hotel preparing a bomb
he was supposed to take on board an El-Al flight leaving Israel, when it
accidentally went off. Andrew Jonathan Neumann was very badly injured but
strong enough to reveal later to the Israelis that he was not British but
Lebanese, and that his operation was supposed to be a special "gift" to
Israel from Imad Mughniyeh.

'A psychopath'

"Bin Laden is a schoolboy in comparison with Mughniyeh," says an Israeli who

knows Mughniyeh . "The guy is a genius, someone who refined the art of
terrorism to its utmost level. We studied him and reached the conclusion
that he is a clinical psychopath motivated by uncontrollable psychological
reasons, which we have given up trying to understand. The killing of his two

brothers by the Americans only inflamed his strong motivation."

Experts on Iraq and Saddam Hussein also believe that Iraq was the state
behind the two terror masterminds. "In recent months, there was a change,
and Iraq decided to get into the terror business. On July 7th, they tried
for the first time to send a suicide bomber, trained in Baghdad, to blow up
Tel Aviv airport (Foreign Report No. 2651)."

Our sources believe that it will be very difficult to get to the bottom of
this unprecedented terror operation. However, they believe the chief of the
Iraqi SSO is Qusai Hussein, the dictator's son, and his organisation is the
most likely to have been involved.

Mughniyeh, 48, is a "sick man", says an intelligence officer who was in
charge of his file. He is considered by Western intelligence agencies as the

most dangerous active terrorist today. He is wanted by several governments
and the Americans have put a $2m reward on his head.

[Detailed list of Mughniyeh operations removed for Non-Subscriber Extract]

It was the assassination of one man in March 1984 that is said to have made
Mughniyeh the CIA's most wanted terrorist. Mughniyeh allegedly kidnapped the

head of the CIA station in Beirut, William Buckley. The kidnapping triggered

what later became known as 'Irangate', when the Americans tried to exchange
Buckley (and others) with arms for Iran. However, the attempt ended in a
fiasco. By one unconfirmed account, Mughniyeh tortured and killed Buckley
with his own hands.

A year later, in a combined CIA/Mossad operation, a powerful car bomb went
off at the entrance to the house of Hizbullah's spiritual leader, Sheikh
Muhammad Hussein Fadlallah. Seventy-five people were killed. One of them was

his brother. Hunted by the CIA and the Mossad, Mughniyeh hid in Iran.

In February 1992, Israeli helicopter gunships attacked the convoy of the
then head of Hizbullah, Sheikh Abas Musawi, in South Lebanon. Musawi, his
wife and children were killed and the revenge attack followed a month later.

According to press reports, Mughniyeh was called back into action and, in a
well-planned and devastating attack, his people blew up the Israeli embassy
in Argentina. The building was demolished and 92 were killed. Only last
year, after a long investigation, did Argentina issue a warrant for
Mughniyeh's arrest.

The reprisal for the attack in Argentina came in December 1994, when a car
bomb went off in a southern Shi'ite suburb of Beirut. Four people were
killed. One of them was called Mughniyeh, but to the deep disappointment of
those Israelis who planted the bomb it was the wrong one. Mughniyeh's life
was saved, but his other brother Fuad was killed. Mughniyeh waited for his
opportunity for revenge.

Our Israeli sources claim to see Mughniyeh's signature on the wreckage in
New York and Washington. How to counter this kind of terrorism? "To fight
these bastards you don't need a military attack," said an experienced
Israeli commando officer. "You only need to adopt Israel's assassination
policy."

Subject: What's the Plan -- Patterns of Global
Terrorism 2000

Hello friends,

For those of you who I have not spoken to I hope with
all my heart family and friends are safe.  The victims
will not be forgotten.

I would like to engage all of you in a discussion of
what is to come.  Or perhaps I'm ranting you decide...

My first reactions like many others were decimation,
selected occupation, no more standing military, slowly
over the course of 30-50 years we bring these nations
into the fold of economic prosperity.  This has worked
before, but will it now?  On terrorism and
intelligence, I think terrorism is not to be treated
as criminal law; we cannot follow the diplomatic code
when dealing with terrorist organizations (i.e., our
intelligence should be permitted to assassinate these
people, or have moles on the payroll).

After a few days of kill 'em all mentality, I decided
to begin my education in this matter.  I would like to
share with you my first research and some impressions.
 I do feel more informed.  My resolve is no different;
but my initial general blood thirst is evolving into
something far more calculated.

Domestic and international terrorism has been a
horrible problem for as long as most nations can
remember.  There is on average more than one terrorist
event a day in the world.  In the late 1980's it was
as high as 2 events a day.
This is terrorism.  From Colin Powell himself.  I
found myself numb before I event got through the first
months of 2000.

List of major terrorist organizations - they will all
need to be eliminated but I have highlighted the first
targets.
http://web.nps.navy.mil/~library/tgp/tgpndx.htm#2000
<http://web.nps.navy.mil/~library/tgp/tgpndx.htm#2000>
Start with Al Quida a focal point or umbrella
organization for a worldwide network that includes
many Sunni Islamic extremist groups such as Egyptian
Islamic Jihad, some members of al-Gama'at
al-Islamiyya, the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan, and
the Harakat ul-Mujahidin.

Al-Qaida - an terrorist organization almost run by bin
Laden, financially his network is like a holding
company.  Al Quida exerts heavy influence over the
four organizations listed below.  Each of the other
organizations in turn exerts influence over other
terrorist groups.  Most of these are fundamental
Islamic extremist organizations.  A fear is that a
general cohesive theme is to overthrow the
middle-eastern governments, establish fundamentalist
Islamic states which would persecute other religious
observers within their borders, wage war on western
influence internally,  and potentially engage in
military actions against the United States and other
western nations.
http://web.nps.navy.mil/~library/tgp/qaida.htm
<http://web.nps.navy.mil/~library/tgp/qaida.htm>

These organizations have signed a fatwa issued by bin
Laden in 1998 calling for the death of Americans.

Geography - very good idea to look at maps of the
region.
http://www.randmcnally.com <http://www.randmcnally.com>
I found the geography interesting to study in detail.
Afghanistan is horribly difficult to access.  The
ocean-to-land access is through Pakistan's Arabian Sea
coast; then head North 800 miles, to Peshawar and then
into Kabul (the mountainous route the British used in
1946).  The Pakistan army is 50% Taliban sympathetic.
Already 42 political parties have issued statements of
opposition to their own government for offering to
help America.  They will descend into civil war most
surely.  The HUM will likely be a significant part of
that problem.  It will do us no good to partner with a
cooperative government and an uncooperative military.
Could American planes be shot down over Pakistan by
renegades within their own army?

Things we should know:
In Pakistan, many Afghan refugees were initially
trained by the US and Pakistan Intelligence (ISI) in
the 1980's to fight the Soviets.  They were called the
Mujahideen.  Many were children living in refugee
camps when recruited, having known nothing else in
this world.  Left to their own devices for 10 years,
these camps and training centers have given root to
terrorist organizations (HUM) and violently
anti-humanitarian fundamentalist movements (the
Taliban).  The Taliban gained control of Afghanistan
in 1996 overthrowing the then Shiite-Communist regime,
killing and hanging the president in downtown Kabul
for several days.  The Taliban are Sunni Muslim
fundamentalists and conduct a religious proletariat;
they terrorize other Muslim communities, the Hazaras
and Hindu Kush people within their borders.    The
Taliban recently issued an edict requiring Afghan
Hindus to wear identifications tags.  Sound familiar?
The Taliban is hosting Al Qaida, bin Laden's
organization.   bin Laden also influences the
fundamentalist (IMU) in Uzbekistan.  The IMU is
another Sunni fundamentalist terrorist group - they
are mostly involved in terrorizing Uzbekistan,
Kyrgyzistan, and Tajikistan, north of Afghanistan.
The Taliban constituents are predominantly from the
Pushtun region.  Pushtun covers parts of Afghanistan
and Pakistan.; There have been movements to create a
separate Pushtunistan.  This map indicates the ethnic
breakdown in the region.
http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/middle_east_and_asia/pakistan_ethnic_80.jpg
<http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/middle_east_and_asia/pakistan_ethnic_80.jpg>
.
 And the HUM focuses their attacks on India.

The Shi'ite Muslims, many other Sunni Muslims, and in
general the world muslim community do not agree with
the Taliban's interpretation of Islamic law.  The
Taliban is not accepted by most of the Islamic world
because of their extreme harshness and treatment of
women, total eliminations of all modern culture, and
being the worlds largest heroin production.  The
elimination of western influence is not considered a
problem within some other fundamentalist groups.

Afghanistan is not friendly with neighbor Iran to it's
West.  Iran is an Shi'a or Shi'ite Muslim nation.
Because Iran is predominantly Shi'a; they are
unfriendly with the more radical Sunni dominated
Afghanistan.  Iran backs the ousted government and is
angered by Taliban terrorism and slaughtering of
thousands of Shi'a Muslims, including Iranian
diplomats in Afghanistan.  Iran also has border
disputes with Iraq further to the West even after a
devastating 8 year war.  Afghanistan and Iraq are both
25 million people; Iran is closer to 65 million.

<http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/ops/war/1998/09/980910-afghan2.htm>

Also during the war with Soviet over 10 MILLION land
mines were dropped in Afghanistan with no maps left
behind.
http://www.afghan-network.net/Landmines/
<http://www.afghan-network.net/Landmines/>

The only opposition to the Taliban is the Northern
Military Alliance.  These people are also Sunni Muslim
and ethnically are the Tajiks.  Their leader Massoud
was killed last week, assassinated by men posing as
the press.  The sliver of Afghanistan they still
control is the finger squeezed between northern
Pakistan and Southern Tajikistan and touching China.
The Tajik presence cannot be eliminated by the Taliban
without initiating conflict with Tajikistan.  The NMA
is a political authority that may be put in place.
They have offered 15000 soldiers, and 15000 more on
reserve.  Their leader was killed last week, most
likely in some coordinated effort - along with the new
requirement that all organization in Afghanistan need
to put monies in to the Afghan bank.  Many acts were
clearly coordinated in this event.

I have also been seeking out information on the
Taliban in particular.  These link contain some very
powerful information.  Quite frankly it is shameful
that the Western world turned their back when this
hellish situation was brought on upon Afghanistan many
years ago.

First a super high level overview - it is interesting
to note how many times this land has been ravaged by
invaders.

Try to digest this information - it is very important
that initiate an informed dialogue.  But the Taliban
must go.

This section is organized geographically based on the
waterways.
The nations in question will need to eradicate, expel
extremists from within their own borders.  This means
partnering with a United States led coalition and
contributing emphatically.

Look at the Mediterranean coast.
The South - Morocco, Algeria, Libya and Egypt are all
plagued by terrorism.
The East - Israel, Lebanon, Syria  all plagued by
terrorist groups.  There is a dreadful rooting of
terrorist organization.  Beirut was once a beautiful
city I am told; For 20 years it has replaced Warsaw as
the pop-culture reference to a war torn city.
Terrorism surrounding Israel ties into several other
organizations including Hizbollah and HAMAS.

Look at the Red Sea.
Egypt,Sudan and Saudi Arabia.  The Sudan is terribly
infiltrated; this may be the terrorist plan hatching
ground and safe haven.  And while the Saudi's are
economically partnered with the western world, many
extremists operating out of Saudi do fund these
organizations.  Sudan is also suspected of being a
meeting ground for the terrorist network.

Look at the Gulf of Aden - entrance to the Red Sea
Yemen - has allowed bin Laden to broadcast, site of
the USS Cole bombing.  After the attack, the
perpetrators fled from Yemen to Afghanistan.

Rounding the corner into the Persian Gulf.
Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates - both
acknowledge the Taliban government.  They have
provided radical nationals to the Afghans, throughout
the years, many support the Taliban; some trained with
bin Laden.  We hope these governments have a change of
heart with regard to recognition of the Taliban.
Iran, Persia until 1935, has coastal territory along
the gulf and the Caspian sea to the north.  We have
had problems with Iran in the past; in the current
situation, they may be helpful maybe not.  There is
information pointing to an Islamic conference in
Tehran which is another possible "hatching" ground for
these operations.  Iran still may be a very serious
issue in the future.  It is a religious government -
something we all implicitly abhor in this nation.
They exiled the Shah and began systematically
eliminating western influence from their society after
the event in 1979
Iraq - Part of the Ottoman empire through 1932.
Kurdish territory in the North bordering on Turkey.
Hussein has used Sarin nerve gas against his own
nationals, the Kurds in the North near the Turkish
border.  As we know, he has invaded Kuwait.  An 8 year
war with Iran over borders was going on at the same
time the soviets were in Afghanistan.  This is a
military regime.  Though the economic sanctions we
have used for the last 10 years have kept Iraq down as
military force; they have created a new generation of
hatred.

East from the Gulf into the Arabian Sea, part of the
Indian Ocean, the Arabian basin is separated from the
Indian Ocean by underwater land structure but there is
nothing to prevent sea travel.
Pakistan - a country on the verge of civil war.  A
military regime. Probably half of the people in the
army are Taliban sympathizers.  Pakistan may be in
civil war shortly.
India - the largest democracy in the world.  Still
disassembling the 3500 yr old Caste System.  The
British occupation left India with an intact system of
representative government.  They are plagued by
internal strife from the Sikh, who are separatists.
Their brand of terrorism has been significantly
reduced in the past 8 years.  They are also plagued by
the HUM another extremist fundamental Islamic movement
- very closely connected to the Taliban and bin Laden
as described earlier.

China actually shares a thin strip of border with
Afghanistan near Tajikistan.  Pakistan also borders on
China.  Though the Himalayas separate the bulk of this
geographically from the 1 billion people of China.
Having China on board is critical.

I would like the US to investigate TSI, Telephone
Services International, a New Jersey Corporation and
Unocal, a California Oil Company.  Both of these
companies have had business dealings with the Taliban
government.  I believe that corporate greed with total
disregard for the human condition in any country is
unacceptable and should be uncovered and dealt with
accordingly.  And I think the investment community
needs to demonstrate in the markets to corporations
who dabble in business with terror linked
organizations.  The investment community was hit
particularly hard; i hope going forward there will be
a clear message to stop support for companies who may
potentially aggravate terrorists to attack Americans.
We may need to legally restrict what our corporations
can do abroad and who they are allowed to strike deals
with based on the opportunity cost of potential
terrorist activity.  By all means, no corporation
should have had any business dealings with the
Taliban; perhaps this should be enforced by law.

Some rants about waking the sleeping giant MIND!
I firmly believe that the deadened state of
intellectual discussion concerning these issues in
America is part of the problem.
We have been funneling our best minds into Technology,
Banking, Law and Medicine for a very long time.  The
general lack of information and interest in world
political and human conditions, and the evolution of
human governments is dangerous.  The average American
simply need to be more informed and have an opinion to
express to our government on what we can do to ensure
the survival of our way of life and the spread of
goodwill.

Most likely we are all in agreement that a forceful
military strike will initiate this new campaign;  I
think there is quite a bit of confusion over what we
really are about to embark on.  Our army may well
include the corporate army and the casualties will be
civilian.  We need to get every American to study this
condition, it's roots, causes, directions and what we
can do to end it.  Americans need to start an
intelligent dialogue, around the country publicly so
that we can demonstrate to ourselves and the rest of
the world that we are educated and serious about
achieving a solution.  Our military domination is
already known throughout the world.

Perhaps our long-term goal may involve bolstering the
middle-class communities in these nations assuming
they are moderate, tolerant and peace-loving; they
need something to lose, and conversely, something to
protect.  To get there we will need to eradicate any
fundamentalist governments like the Taliban, under no
circumstances can they be trusted going forward ever.
We will need to partner with each nation and hunt the
terrorist organizations down within their borders.  We
need to seize assets, disable communications, engage
in an unprecedented Intelligence campaign.

Let's focus our efforts on thinking and providing our
leadership with a collective strategy and wisdom, an
opinion from within.  While I trust the powers that be
to handle these affairs,  I never believed any day in
my life that we were so vulnerable.

Know the enemy. The threat of bio-chemical weapons - a
simple overview of what the most likely agents are.

There is one company in America that is contracted by
the DOD to produce the Anthrax vaccine, the BioPort
Corporation, formerly known as the Michigan Biologic
Products Institute (MBPI).  I hope the defense around
that company is solid.

Hopefully, this will generate some interest in
developing a public discussion regarding strategies
for the eradication of terrorism and governments that
support them actively, tacitly or otherwise.  bin
Laden  Imad Mughniyeh, head of the special overseas

operations for Hizbullah, and the Egyptian Dr Ayman

  Al Zawahiri, senior member of Al-Qaeda and possible

and the Taliban should go first, then perhaps
the other organizations mentioned above.  Then what
Hussein, Qaddafi?  Will Egypt be on board when the Al
Jihad unleash terror in Egypt?  Do these nations host
silently in exchange for less or no terrorism within
their borders, completely bending to the will of
terrorists for fear of their people being injured?  Is
that support or a successful campaign of terror? Where
do we draw the line?  I suppose where you stand after
Tuesday is a good start?  Who's next?  How do we
prioritize? Will they are be lined up behind the US in
1 year?

Be strong,  Be prepared, Be smart, Be heard, God Bless
America

CONFIDENTIAL  ATTY CLIENT WORK PRODUCT

Sue, Joe, Mary:

As you can see from my other email, I took a wack at supplementing the
EPSA/WPTF comments with some additional stuff on hyrdro.

I will try to get Tim Belden's read on whether my insert is important or not
to include but I would appreciate your feedback too.

Re: EPSA's draft: It is very good.  My only comment is that, beginnign on p.
3,  EPSA should more directly attack the concept of economic witholding.
There really is no such thing (or it really is not different that physical
witholding).  If you raise your price above the opportunity cost in the
market, your buyer will go to that other resource and thus you won't be able
to economically withold.

Re: WPTF, I am not sure what to say.  I apologize that I had not read
carefully before our 1 pm call but the version I reviewed has some issues. I
just don't think it will be received that well by the FERC staff. Other than
amplifying the credit issue (probably in there at Sue's request) I am hard
pressed to know why Enron would support it seperate from EPSA.

Bill:

I am sending you by FedEx tonight a copy of the most recent edition of the
cruising guide to the Virgin Islands.  It's not required reading but I
thought you might find it interesting to see a bit about where we will be
sailing.  Please be sure to bring it along with you since we will need it if
we try and go to any spots we haven't been to before and since it will have
the most up to date information on navigation, restaurants, bars, etc. (you
will see little hand-drawn charts of the most popular anchorages - these are
surprisingly useful).

There's a lot of information in there.  If you want to focus on just a few,
the places we are (in my humble and easily overridden opinion) most likely to
visit are:

Road Town - that's where we will pick up the boat so we're pretty certain to
be there
The Bight on Norman Island - deserted island but a floating bar/restaurant,
good snorkeling nearby
Jost Van Dyke - we have always liked Sydney's Peace & Love in Little Harbor
and Foxy's in Great Harbor
Sandy Cay - the classic deserted island, very small - probably just a lunch
or quick swim stop
Cane Garden Bay - a little tricky  getting in but well worth it - the
quintessential Caribbean beach (swath of white sand, palm trees, steel bands,
etc.)
Trellis Bay - closest anchorage to the airport and where there used to be a
restaurant called The Last Resort
Cooper Island - nice quiet resort on the island with a good outdoor dining
option
The Baths - wouldn't be a trip to the BVI without a stop here
Bitter End Yacht Club - probably about as far as we'd want to go

There are some great beaches and secluded anchorages over on St. John but it
is in the US Virgins which means clearing the boat out of immigration and
customs in the BVI, then clearing into the US at Cruz Bay on St. John and
then back into the BVI when we go back over there.  Kind of a lot of trouble,
particularly since the anchorage in Cruz Bay is so crowded it's impossible to
find a good place to leave the boat while we go to clear in.  We've done it
before but my view is that with limited time it just isn't worth it.  Of
course, we started this with the assumption that my view isn't necessarily
controlling here and I know that Linda particularly likes the restaurant at
Caneel Bay (fancy resort) on St. John.  So stay tuned.

We will need to be sure we are anchored somewhere near Tortola (which
probably just means not at the Bitter End or on St. John) the night before
your flight so we can make sure you get to the airport.  One alternative is
to stay at Trellis Bay - or right across at Marina Cay - that night and just
dinghy you over to the dock - it's a 5 min. walk to the airport.  Or we can
drop you anywhere else there's a phone since there are taxis that can be
called and the island just isn't that big - I don't think it could take more
than an hour by car to get from any one spot on the island to any other!

I put the Moorings luggage tags in with the cruising guide.  They aren't that
important unless you check bags.  Please be sure to use them if you check
anything since that will make it much more likely that they will catch up
with us some day.  I'm not sure, but it may also make it just a tad easier to
get through BVI customs when they see those familiar tags.

Here are some BVI links if you have time to do a little surfing:
