Here's one for you to chew on for awhile. As we approach the transition to a
new organizational structure in ET&S, let's rethink the role and competencies
of the legal department. I'd like each of you to answer the following
questions and circulate your answers to me and each other. To avoid having
anyone's answers unduly influenced by anyone else's, please send your
responses at 12 noon on Thursday. No, this isn't being graded, and doesn't
affect the PRC process or any other process. I just want to get access to as
much original thinking as possible.

1. What is the ET&S law dept. currently best at? (give one example).

2. What is the ET&S law dept. currently worst at? (give one example).

3. Without regard for any past objectives, what should our top 3 objectives
be? (make these very specific--objectives like "We should manage legal and
regulatory compliance and optimize shareholder value" don't cut it).

Thanks for your responses. DF
