I am putting together a comprehensive contact list, but in the interim I wa=
nted to flag two contacts for you to tuck away in your pocket. I have met =
and spent time with the CEO of S&P. I know him through Michael Lewan, one =
of our DC consultants. You may know of that S&P is owned by McGraw Hill. =
Michael Lewan gave the "Steve Kean" (and #3) of McGraw Hill his very first =
job in life. Glenn then introduced me to the CEO of S&P, Leo O'Neill. Leo=
is a very approachable person who readily made acquaintances with me b/c o=
f his great fondness for Bob Rubin and Michael Lewan. Leo told me several =
stories of how he always "thinks better of" the CEOs who sit down with him =
and engage in honest conversation when S&P is evaluating its ratings of a c=
ompany. That is how Leo got to know Bob; Leo was very impressed with how B=
ob acted when S&P was contemplating action against Goldman Sachs many years=
ago. Second, the recently resigned Head of Enforcement of the SEC is a fr=
iend from my gym. For several years I spent most mornings with him as we s=
hared the same personal trainer. I am sure Richard hired most if not all o=
f the current SEC enforcement staff. I am not sure where Richard landed up=
on his departure, as he wanted to just take time off before starting his ne=
xt career. These two contacts are small, but thought you might want to inc=
lude them in your thinking. Hope all is well.
