Q: Thanks for all you have done and for your continued efforts to see us through this difficulty. I can not begin to imagine the weight of your burden, but please know that I and I am sure most employees are behind you 100% and appreciate all you have done and are doing. I know you will see us through this and am delighted you are there to lead the endeavor. Are you assuming more responsibility for our low stock price than you should? Doesn't Ben Graham's Mister Market deserve most of the credit for our recent price swings? I believe strongly in free markets. However, for them to work there must be intelligent, well informed buyers and intelligent, well informed sellers operating in good faith. I am not convinced the U.S stock market has seen many of either over the last three to five years! My only hope is that the speculators, gamblers, short sellers, etc. all loose their shirts and that Mr. Market finally gets his courage screwed to the hitching post! Just get us through the exposures we have at our current market cap. and we will be in great shape a few years from now. Thanks again and best wishes.

Q: I called Bill Gaines of Puget to try to relax our credit constraints. We just traded voicemails, but agreed to talk on Monday. My general message, unless you have something to add or subtract, will be: "lots has gone on at both companies, makes sense to get together to meet your team to talk about gas and power - probably is more we can be doing together, etc. meeting in late Nov/early Dec". Thoughts? Chris

Q: Power Marketers QSE Services - Full Service Contract Length No Term 1 Year 3 Year MINIMUM ANNUAL FEE $120,000 $108,000 $102,000 $/MWh $/MWh $/MWh Energy Scheduling (includes reserve products) 0.08 0.065 0.055 Settlement 0.08 0.065 0.055 MAXIMUM ANNUAL FEE No limit $400,000 $380,000 Thane indicated that we could possibly do a 1 or 2 month contract, thus avoiding "LD's" for a NO TERM contract.. He also indicated that the Minimum Annual Fee is really monthly--thus under the No Term scenario, with a 60-day cancellation: if we were to terminate & begin using our own QSE prior to the 60 day cancellation we'd only be liable for the $20K in "Liquidated Damages"...$10K monthly minimum * 2 months. The point is, if we only use 2 months we're not liable for $100K for unused months because of the "MINIMUM ANNUAL FEE OF $120K."
