<<closing list.DOC>> Attached is a list of closing documents which I told Joe I would send. We have copies of the necessary UCC search certificates in our office. Lisa Mellencamp asks that you return the executed documents to our offices so that we may review them and coordinate execution by the Enron Parties. The UCC filing statements need not be signed. As to the changes requested in the Sager draft, Lisa, Robert and I agree that the language suggested for 2(e) of the Second Amendment was, as stated, only clarifying and need not be inserted in light of the balance of the text of the 2 (e) and the statements made in your proposed 8K. We understand that the other changes in the Sager draft were made in drafts subsequent to the one she was reviewing or are corrective only and will be made by you. Thanks for all the hard work. - closing list.DOC

Here is an email: Dear Vince: I hope you have liked the short paper on decision making I sent you a week ago. It emphasizes the human nature of the process of decision making. I personally believe that this line of reasoning is systematically neglected by the investment and trading communities. I think that many of the great traders and investors are very well aware of these limitations of human mind and are making efforts to utilize them. For example you may encounter similar ideas in the George Soros' book "The Alchemy of Finance". I am certain that developing and expertise in this area bears a tremendous potential for improving Enron's trading operations and will give us an edge with respect to other trading powerhouses. Do you think there are desks at Enron that may be interested in developing a system of procedures that leads to improving our trading performance? I will be extremely interested in working in this field. By the way I have already gathered many of the basic pieces of information needed for such an undertaking. As a beginning I may make an overview of the literature available on decision biases and list as many of them as possible. Indeed, the mind traps mentioned in the paper are not the only ones. Later we may discuss with our clients possibilities for quantifying the influence of a selected group of these biases on the performance of our traders. Still later, a set of questionnaries, a system for keeping trader's perceptions prior to every act of decion making, and the result of the decision will be created, etc. I envision the final product to be a self-educating trading system learning from every single experience, both positive and negative and utilizing the history of the decision maker to her best benefit. After some transition period, the result should be a more enlightened process of decision making of our traders, stripped as much as possible from the common psychological biases and utilizing human judgment--the very thing which differentiates the good trader from the computer (or the bad trader, for that matter).

Jeff, you will be missed by many, many people here at Enron. I know that I and the rest of the internal communications team (Sarah and Courtney) will miss working with you and will miss your engaging management style. You helped us raise employee communications to a fresh new level, and you'll be a hard act to follow at floor meetings, breakfasts, videos, etc. I wish you the best in everything you do going forward. Have fun, take care and God bless.

What is the subject?

OUT: Thanks for the memories
