Yes, thanks. Lay is going to be giving the keynote. It may be a hard story
to assemble: the gas market is deregulated and structured pretty much the way
we would like to see it done in both gas and power markets, yet we still have
high prices. It's a bit of a stretch to blame it all on OPEC. I'm
interested in any views you may have.

Mr. David Haug
Chairman and CEO
Enron Caribbean Basin

Dear Mr. Haug:

I am writing to bring your attention to an important and timely event that
will be held on September 20th at the Hyatt Regency Columbus, in Columbus,
Ohio - "The Governors' Natural Gas Summit: Responding to the Challenge." This
event is convened by the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission (IOGCC).?
Co-chaired by Alaska Governor Tony Knowles, IOGCC Chairman and Ohio Governor
Bob Taft, with the participation of other governors, this forum promises to
be an outstanding exchange of ideas among leaders of government, energy
producers, transporters, distributors, and end-users on the subject of the
current and long-term outlook for natural gas resources and markets in North
America. A very distinguished group of speakers is assembling, including
senior government officials and senior executives of companies critically
involved in the energy value chain.

Primary Goals of the Summit include:

* Exploring and clearly communicating the current dynamics of the natural gas
market
* Informing the industry and the public about the current and future supply
potential for gas
* Providing governmental and industry leaders with an opportunity to discuss
natural gas in the context of national energy policy, with the input of
interested State Governors.

The Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission (IOGCC) and the governors have
asked CERA to help organize the Summit and has invited senior CERA staff to
moderate panel discussions on the Natural Gas Marketplace and the Supply
Response for North America. In addition, I will be providing an opening
framework for participants and contributing to the wrap-up of the Summit at
the close of the day with the governors.? We are very pleased to be working
with the governors and with the IOGCC and its executive director, Christine
Hansen.

We hope that you can join us for this important event, and encourage you to
