The threshold question is sponsorship, so if you have any ideas I'd appreciate
it. My contacts are all academics/policy people which is of no help at all.

Do you work for Kaufman? What's he like? It sounds like you know about the
position--would it be working with you?

< < Jeff,
< < How are you? Wild prices and politics out there I gather. I have a
< < question/proposal for you. A major goal that is shared by the GSPP
< alumni
< < board
< < and the school is to host policy forums that attract top academics,
< policy
< < makers, and public attention as not only a good public service, but at
< good PR
< < for the school and its mission. Since electricity deregulation in CA is
< on
< < the
< < front page of all major newspapers this summer, the Dean and I are
< interested
< < in
< < putting together an electricity policy forum. I would need your
< contacts,
< < political sense, and perhaps some financial support from Enron to make
< this
< < work. Do you like the idea and would you be willing to help in some of
< these
< < ways? I think it is in the interest of Enron to advance reasoned debate
< with
< < the backing of the independent/objective GSPP against what is already a
< major
< < emotional/political backlash.
< <
< < On a totally unrelated issue, I spoke with Tim Belden about a position in
< the
< < Enron govt affairs group working with the trading desk. I guess the VP
< for
< < the
< < West, Kaufman, is supposed to call me. If the job is really to

< < follow RTO developments and their interaction with energy prices it seems
< a
< < perfect fit with what I've been doing. I told Tim I'm happy where I am
< but
< < the
< < opportunity sounds interesting.
< < Cheers,
