Your honor, could the witness please explain the source of his information.
Couldn't be the Ford Excursion marketing department, could it? Jeffery Fawcett 09/26/2000 10:13 AM To: Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron cc: Susan Scott/ET&S/Enron@ENRON Subject: Environmental Alert called off Know of any openings??? With the GIR almost wrapped up, I'm looking for a new challenge.... p.s. Purchase of the Excursion is defensible (barely), SoCal's "windowing" practice is indefensible!

Have you considered a career as a PR exec with OPEC. Affectionately yours, Jeff Jeffery Fawcett 09/26/2000 09:57 AM To: Susan Scott/ET&S/Enron@ENRON cc: Jeff Dasovich/NA/Enron@Enron Subject: Environmental Alert called off Consider the facts: - 80% of the materials in this vehicle's construction are recyclable. - Although it weighs 7,200 lbs, it gets 14 mpg, city, 18 mpg, highway, better than most 6-cylinder SUV's. - It's the only SUV that has a "blocker beam," a sort of low-slung bumper behind the front bumper designed to transfer the energy of an impact with a small car directly onto the small car's rear bumper, mitigating the risk of the Excursion riding up and over the smaller car. In addition, the standard class V hitch is set low on the rear frame and, similar to the blocker beam up front, is designed to absorb the energy of a rear crash. - It is a high efficiency, smokeless turbo-charged diesel engine... although diesels produce more particulates than gasoline engines, overall, they don't produce nearly the pollution of a gas-fired engine. See below: Diesel engine In general terms the diesel engine is less polluting that the petrol engine, it produces 25 times less carbon monoxide, 15 times less hydrocarbons without burning and half as much nitrogen oxide, whereas the emissions of sulphur dioxide are higher. Nevertheless, it should be pointed out that when the load of the diesel engine approaches the maximum, the formation of soot increases radically (which may even go so far as to multiply the concentration of black lead by 20). This phenomenon does not occur with petrol vehicles, in which the concentration of particles in the exhaust gases is kept practically constant. In order to prevent this, we can recycle part of the exhaust gases through the air inlet and place filters in the exhaust in order to reduce the emission of particles.
