Just to add to Tim's note - I suggest that the number of overlap issues wou=
ld be few and far between and can be resolved at the operating level. I th= ink ENA can offer up representatives from each region that have an open lin= e of communication with the appropriate EES people. If ENA and EES provide= d each other with a short list of contacts there should be no need to deal = with this at the OTC level. For example, Chris Foster (ENA West Power Mid = Market) would direct questions/opportunities to EES and field calls from E= ES people looking at deals in the western power market. ENA Interface List: Power: West: Foster Midwest: Baughman East: Pagan Texas: Sukaly Gas: West: Tycholiz Midwest: Luce East: Vickers Texas: Martin Dave knows all of these people and I believe that they do things in the bes= t interest of "One-Enron".
