Here is an email: Kim- Here is the August spreadsheet. These are the changes I've made so far: I changed the formula in column R I added in the new contracts for August The differences between my model and the invoice are the way that they calculate the actual gas flow to Malin (column L on mine and column Z on theirs); It also appears that they do not include the Redwood credit. Looking at my model now, I also don't remember what the calculation in column D is for. It seems kind of unnecessary to me and doesn't make much sense. I know this is a lot of stuff to look at. If you don't understand what I just wrote, ask me and I'll explain what I'm trying to say. Thanks,

Q: Due to changes to the database relative to the change to "Netco", the curve files will need to be upgraded. The majority of the files will be able to be upgraded by each individual with a minimal of effort. Older files will take extra effort. Can you have your people identify how many old files we have. The old files can be identified by looking at the "Publish" tab in the Admin box located at F2:G3. The old files will only have the button (Reset Rows/Columns) The new files will have 3 buttons (Reset Rows/Columns) (Load Modules)(Re Init) Knowing which files still have the old format will help the IT group plan for this migration. If you could have your people check and get back to me as soon as possible, I would appreciate it. Thanks

IN: Shelley & Lynn, Fran has advised me there are no legal problems with schedulers working a weekend shift from 7 am to 10 pm for one weekend day, the other scheduler will take the other day. Each will be given a two days of comp time as they are today for their two 8 hour shifts. Fran does have a concern of fatigue in the later hours, just a we do. There are only two team members that are interested in this schedule, so we'll give it a try and let you know how it goes. Sheila

As you know, Enron and Peoples jointly own enovate. Our group in Chicago is looking to manage some funds which belong to enovate. We had initially envisioned having a cash management policy which would outline how Enron would invest the funds, etc. The other owner of enovate, Peoples, has proposed that we use the attached document in connection with this arrrangement. This is taking me a little far afield of my area of expertise, so I'm writing you guys for input, direction, etc. Suggestions? Gregg do you want to correct any of what I wrote? Kay

From the 12/11/01 New Dem Daily. Please let the Colorado DLC know what you think. This week the long, windy debate in Washington over a so-called economic stimulus package will likely be resolved one way or another. Putting aside all the partisan finger-pointing as to who is responsible for this or that twist or turn in the process, the bottom line is very clear: Republicans are unwilling to support any stimulus package that does not include significant new cuts in tax rates for wealthy individuals and corporations. We think that's too high a price to pay for the modest relief efforts for the unemployed that should be the focus of this legislation. The overall economy is not in as bad a shape as many feared at the beginning of this debate. Fiscal stimulus is already being supplied by new federal spending related to the war on terrorism and homeland defense. The tax rate cuts Republicans demand will in any event have no positive short-term impact on the economy, and could damage its long-range prospects by boosting future federal budget deficits. In effect, the GOP is holding unemployment relief hostage to yet another installment in its relentless drive for tax cuts targeted to high earners. It's time for Democrats to call the whole thing off, and call the Republicans' bluff on unemployment relief by decoupling it from tax rate cuts. Congress should be debating whether to cancel some of the high-end tax cuts enacted earlier this year, in order to pay for the war on terrorism. Instead, Congressional Republicans have spent months talking about new demands on public funds for the Americans who are least vulnerable in the economic slowdown, and least likely to make personal sacrifices in the war effort at home or abroad. If fiscal discipline means anything at all, it means a willingness to resist these sorts of demands. New Democrats favor bipartisan compromises in the pursuit of the national interest, but not in the pursuit of special interests. A deal with Republicans to secure new tax rate cuts would not be a compromise between "Left" and "Right," but between right and wrong.
