Here is an email: This E-Mail is directed toward current users of Adhoc VaR (Value-at-Risk) within the RisktRAC application. The purpose of this E-Mail is to notify users that the Adhoc VaR function within RisktRAC will be discontinued shortly and replaced with the Adhoc VaR function on the RAC website. This is part of the continued migration from RisktRAC to the web-based version. Adhoc VaR will cease to function within RisktRAC on June 30. You may begin using Adhoc VaR immediately on the website and becoming familiar with it if you are not already doing so. A PowerPoint is attached which demonstrates how to access the RAC website and how to use Adhoc VaR within the website. Some users may be set up for RisktRAC but not for the RAC website. If you are a current user of RisktRAC and are unable to access the RAC website, please contact me with the following information: 1) Your name 2) Your network login name (but not your password) 3) The commodities you have responsibility for Thanks,

Q: A few items to consider for the paralegals: (1) We need to organize the various country opinions (ISDA closeout netting, ENA jurisdictional survey, others) so that they are accessible to the group. We should also have a checkout process for the opinions. We should have access to the ECTRIC opinion database (which I believe is organized online). I know that I can look in a particular file cabinet located near Susan for the various volumes of opinions, but where can I find an updated listing of all of the above? (2) Impress upon everyone the importance of entering information into Lotus Notes (for ALL types of agreements). (3) I believe that Sam is in charge of the unanimous consents (for all Enron affiliates). I for one would like an UPDATED book of the consents (kept updated). These consents must be maintained and kept current. If Sam is out of the office, we need access to the book. (4) We should create a "paralegal manual" as we go. Each person could be responsible for drafting sections (and you could review their drafting skills!). Given some time, I could probably help to identify relevant sections. (5) Agreement checkout. We need to create a "checkout card" for each file so that when files are returned to the file cabinet, the checkout card is retired and placed inside the file for the next checkout. I will volunteer my assistant to help out but I don't want to step out of turn here so I'll wait to hear from you. (6) I have the sense from some of the legal-credit meetings that everyone needs to be reminded to follow up on outstanding ISDA's (mainly the Top Ten and high priority items). I'll send additional items as they occur to me. Thanks. Sara

IN: 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).

Scott, I have sent out twice a request to each of the field teams in the Midland Region to provide some desperately needed tank information to determine compliance for all the EOTT crude oil tanks in the Midland area. So far, only the Midland, Lovington, Kermit, Andrews, Hobbs and Jal teams have responded. I would appreciate your assistance in motivating the remaining seven teams to get this information to me at their earliest convenience. I have attached the most recent update of the tank spreadsheet for you to pass on to the teams. Thanks for the help.
