Problem: BODY: Girl, you cracked me up talking about the "holler" . Now you know I don't know. It was raggedy because we did not sing it with the lead. He probably won't spring it on you Sunday, because we did not do that good without you there. I am so tired from last night. Everything is so rushed, and I did not get the kids in bed until 10:35 and then I had to get them up at 6:00 a.m. I'm tired, so I know they are. On top of all of that, the market is up another $1.00 today (yeah!! ), but we have to stay late tonight to go over our positions as a group. My boss said that we will all stay until it's done, so make arrangements. Naturally, Todd is working the evening shift, so I'm trying to work something out with my girlfriend and her daughter. They just live right down the street. So we'll see! Talk with you later!

Problem: BODY: vivify (VIV-i-FY) verb tr. 1. To endow with life; animate. 2. To impart vitality or liveliness. [From Latin vivus (alive) via Late Latin vivificare.] "Yet how could artists vivify culture with 'sympathies and admirations' if they felt out of step with their place and time." Jackson Lears, The Golden Age, The New Republic (Washington), Aug 21, 2000. This week's theme: verbs. ............................................................................

Problem: BODY: David, I called our Credit Group to look into how large Enron's corporate guaranty is with the Duke pipelines (i.e. TETCO and Algonquin) to make sure that we will pass the credit check that will occur when the capacity is released to us. Two counter-parties, ENA and ENA Upstream, are set up to do capacity release and other transport deals with Duke with a maximum guaranty of $16 million. TETCO has ENA down for$1.7 million that has to cover three months of demand charges. ENA has no other TETCO capacity at the present time, so there should be no problems passing TETCO's automatic credit check during the capacity release process. Please note that for the two structures we just discussed, the capacity needs to be both recallable and reputtable. If Yankee and Legal gets comfortable with the other features of the proposed structure, the gas sales price should also include the TETCO commodity cost reimbursement when Yankee calls on the gas and ENA elects to not re-release the capacity back to Yankee. I will be back on Tuesday. If you need to get me on Friday or Monday, page me at 1-877-347-3186. Good luck on your quest, Ruth
