What kind of publicity have we been receiving over the weekend? I'm glad to hear that you're doing better. You didn't look too good Friday. We had a great flight to Sao Paulo and then on to Houston. I highly recommend going out of your way to fly Continental. Mark is in Portland for a few days. We are in competition (with Broadband) for our star paralegal, but I don't give up easily. Shari did announce to me about her departure and may tell the paralegals today (I hope) Lynn and I are preparing a recap memo and we'll send a draft to you soon for comment Talk to you soon. Sara

Ike, given our schedules, it appears that e-mail may be the most effective communication tool. I thought I would just follow up on progress being made in TVA on our settlement process. As well, I understand that there has been a number of communications between TVA and Enron on the NoxTech emissions business. I have encouraged the Enron folks to pursue this opportunity with TVA given the larger dialogue. The Enron team has told me that TVA wishes to move to firm pricing and a MOU on this technology. Given the larger dialogue, I have suggested to our team to hold tight on completing the agreement until both TVA and Enron have a view on where the overall settlement discussions are going. Please give me a call at your earliest convenience. Regards

I think the safest and most efficient way to comply with this request is to have Keith and Ray briefed and ready to answer all FERC's questions without deferring any to other people. Ray and Keith, please talk to Gary Zahn and make sure you are up to speed on everything FERC has asked for and focused on so far. You don't need to be an expert on all that, but a basic understanding of what they have already looked at will help you be more responsive to what they want to ask you about. If you do get stumped, try to defer the question by telling FERC you need to check on a fact or two and can answer that question after a break or at the end of the interview. By doing that , you should be able to get them the information they need without having them cross examine a bunch of other people. Inevitably, if you ask enough people the same question, you may start getting different answers. Lee, I'd like you to be on the phone call with Ray, Keith and Gary to discuss generally what to be ready for and what FERC has already looked at. Please let me know if anyone has any concerns about this approach. DF
