Subject: 2nd last day simulations
John,
In general, results are not too different from last day roll. For "no
roll" and "roll same position" strategies, the 2nd last day seems to
outperform slightly more often.
Let me know if you would like to
1) look at quarter to quarter earning volatility of these strategies or
2) look at effect of incorporating some transaction costs for
rolling/liquidating positions.

Subject: Preface for book
Vince,
?
Hope you are well.
?
We spoke a while ago about who should write the preface for the book, and
you kindly offered that you would provide this.? Is this still possible?? We
realise that you are extremely busy, so Chris and Les went ahead and wrote
something, which is below, and if you want to review, change or re-write?the
preface, that would be very appreciated.? Let me know what your thoughts are.
?
Thanks,
Julie

Preface
?
?
?
One of our main objectives in writing Energy Derivatives: Pricing and Risk
Management has been to bring together as many of the various approaches for
the pricing and risk management energy derivatives as possible, to discuss
in-depth the models, and to show how they relate to each other.? In this
way we hope to help the reader to analyse the different models, price a wide
range of energy derivatives, or to build a risk management system which uses
a consistent modelling framework.? We believe that for practitioners this
last point is very important and we continue to stress in our articles and
presentations the dangers of having flawed risk management and giving
arbitrage opportunities to your competitors by using ad-hoc and inconsistent
models for different instruments and markets (see also OTHERS WHO PROPOSE
CONSISTENT MODELS?).? However, it is not our wish to concentrate on one
particular model or models, at the exclusion of the others because we
believe that the choice should rest with the user (although it will probably
be clear from our discussions the model(s) we prefer).? We therefore try and
give as clear account as possible of the advantage and disadvantages of all
the models so that the reader can make an informed choice as to the models
which best suit their needs.
?
In order to meet our objectives the book is divided into 11 chapters.? In
chapter 1 we give an overview of the fundamental principals needed to model
and price energy derivatives which will underpin the remainder of the book.?
In addition to introducing the techniques that underlie the Black-Scholes
modelling framework we outline the numerical techniques of trinomial trees
and Monte Carlo simulation for derivative pricing, which are used throughout
the book.
?
In Chapter 2 we discuss the analysis of spot energy prices.? As well as
analysing empirical price movements we propose a number of processes that
can be used to model the prices.? We look at the well-know process of
Geometric Brownian Motion as well as mean reversion, stochastic volatility
and jump processes, discussing each and showing how they can be simulated
and their parameters estimated.
?
Chapter 3, written by Vince Kaminski, Grant Masson and Ronnie Chahal of
Enron Corp., discusses volatility estimation in energy commodity markets.?
This chapter builds on the previous one.? It examines in detail the methods,
merits and pitfalls of the volatility estimation process assuming different
pricing models introduced in chapter 2.? Examples from crude, gas, and
electricity markets are used to illustrate the technical and interpretative
aspects of calculating volatility.
?
Chapter 4 examines forward curves in the energy markets.? Although such
curves are well understood and straight-forward in the most financial
markets, the difficulty of storage in many energy markets leads to less well
defined curves.? In this chapter we describe forward price bounds for energy
prices and the building of forward curves from market instruments.? We
outline the three main approaches which have been applied to building
forward curves in energy markets; the arbitrage approach, the econometric
approach, and deriving analytical values by modelling underlying stochastic
factors.
?
Chapter 5 presents an overview of structures found in the energy derivative
markets and discusses their uses.? Examples of products analysed in this
chapter include a variety of swaps, caps, floors and collars, as well as
energy swaptions, compound options, Asian options, barrier options, lookback
options, and ladder options.
?
Chapter 6 investigates single and multi-factor models of the energy spot
price and the pricing of some standard energy derivatives.? Closed form
solutions for forward prices, forward volatilities, and European option
prices both on the spot and forwards are derived and presented for all the
models in this chapter including a three factor, stochastic convenience
yield and interest rate model.
?
Chapter 7 shows how the prices of path dependent and American style options
can be evaluated for the models in Chapter 6.? Simulation schemes are
developed for the evaluation of European style options and applied to a
variety of path dependent options.? In order to price options which
incorporate early exercise opportunities, a trinomial tree scheme is
developed.? This tree is built to be consistent with the observed forward
curve and can be used to price exotic as well as standard European and
American style options.
?
Chapter 8 describes a methodology for valuing energy options based on
modelling the whole of the market observed forward curve.? The approach
results in a multi-factor model that is able to realistically capture the
evolution of a wide range of energy forward curves.? The user defined
volatility structures can be of an extremely general form.? Closed-form
solutions are developed for pricing standard European options, and efficient
Monte Carlo schemes are presented for pricing exotic options.? The chapter
closes with a discussion of the valuation of American style options.
?
Chapter 9 focuses on the risk management of energy derivative positions.?
In this chapter we discuss the management of price risk for institutions
that trade options or other derivatives and who are then faced with the
problem of managing the risk through time.? We begin with delta hedging a
portfolio containing derivatives and look at extensions to gamma hedging )
illustrating the techniques using both spot and forward curve models.? The
general model presented in Chapter 8 is ideally suited to multi-factor
hedging of a portfolio of energy derivatives and this is also discussed.
?
Chapter 10 examines the key risk management concept of Value at Risk (VaR)
applied to portfolios containing energy derivative products.? After
discussing the concept of the measure, we look at how the key inputs
(volatilities, covariances, correlations, etc) can be estimated.? We then
compare the fours major methodologies for computing VaR; Delta, Delta-gamma,
historical simulation and Monte-Carlo simulation, applying each to the same
portfolio of energy options.? In this chapter we also look at testing the
VaR estimates for various underlying energy market variables.
?
Finally, in Chapter 11 we review modelling approaches to credit risk.? We
look in detail at two quite different approaches, CreditMetrics (J. P. Morgan
(1997)) and CreditRisk+ (Credit Suisse Financial Products (1997)) for which
detailed information is publicly available.? Together these provide an
extensive set of tools with which to measure credit risk.? We present
numerical examples of applying these techniques to energy derivatives.
?
Before we begin we stress that the models and methods we present in this
book are tools which should be used with the benefit of an understanding of
how both the +tool, and the market works.? The techniques we describe are
certainly not &magic wands8 which can be waved at data and risk management
problems to provide instant and perfect solutions.? To quote from the
RiskMetrics Technical Document &( no amount of sophisticated analytics will
replace experience and professional judgement in managing risk.8.? However,
the right tools, correctly used make the job a lot easier!

Shirley,
This is to follow up today's conversation with Anita. As mentioned Paul
Kleindorfer invited Vince to be our dinner speaker on Thursday, May 24. On
reflection given the strong line up for Wednesday - Fred Kahn et al - we
would very much like Vince to be the speaker on Wednesday. This will
conclude the day very well giving participants a strong incentive to be there
for the Wednesday.
I gather that this change should be acceptable to Vince.
We will show Vince's name as follows:
Wincety J. Kaminski

Jeremy will be em ailing you the program with this information immediately.
We would like to go to press today. Failing that we can go to press
tomorrow. We would very much appreciate your confirming this and making any
corrections or changes. If you would respond to all of us it would be
appreciated.

So the day of love has passed and some of us are reveling in the piles of
Valentine's cards we have received. Of course, all of mine are e-cards so I
can only frolic near my computer not among the masses of paper greetings that
shamelessly fall short of the sentiment our greeting cards convey (and no! I

Spring is on its way, which means, the end of those winter blues. Hooray! I'm
so glad to have the beautiful, blossoming flowers and the allergic reactions

seriousness, I love spring. It's a time to regenerate, to plant and plan for
the summer days to come.
I can't forget St. Patrick's Day. I have far too many Irish friends (or
friends who, in the very least, like to "act" Irish) to let that one slide on
by without comment. I'm already worried about the level of "party" I have to
achieve to prove my "spirit"! Remember to enjoy this holiday safely (if
soberly won't apply). Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Shmuel,
Thanks for the invitation to speak on October 23rd.
Would you like me to split my presentation and devote
some time to the Enron Analyst/Associate program?
I plan to make presentation on energy derivatives markets
(development of the markets in the US and Europe, valuation
challenges, Enron's role in developing the forward markets for natural gas
and electricity).
I shall send you the bullet points in a few days.

Subject: Your speaking engagement at Baylor on evening of February 23
Dear Vince,
I am following up concerning your upcoming speaking engagement at Baylor on
evening of February 23. Of course, I'll plan to see you during the
afternoon at John Martin's "new economy" conference. That evening, you
will be the dinner speaker for the official chartering ceremony of the
Gamma Iota Sigma Risk Management and Insurance fraternity. We are hoping
for a really good turnout that evening, and expect guests not only from
around Texas but also possibly other parts of the country. I am not sure
what your travel plans are, but I did take the liberty of setting up a
guaranteed reservation for you at the Marriott Courtyard (Confirmation
#84857419). Let me know if you don't need the reservation, but otherwise
it will be available to you.
I also am interested in finding out whether I might be able to attract you
to campus on another occasion to speak to my corporate risk management
classes. Perhaps we can discuss this possibility when we see each other
about three weeks from now.
Sincerely, with best regards,
Jim Garven

Subject: KWI User Group
Dear Vince
Please may I reintroduce myself. We met last year at the Sydney EPRM
conference which my company KWI sponsored. I chaired the session at which
you spoke.
As you may remember, my company, KWI are one of the world's leading
provider
of systems (kW3000) and consultancy for energy, trading and risk
management.
We have over 60 clients worldwide including many of the world's leading
energy companies (not Enron unfortunately):
North America
- TVA
- Ontario Power
- Cinergy
- Bonneville Power
Europe
- Enel
- ATEL
- Electrabel
- EDF
Nordic
- Vattenfall
- Fortum
- Sydkraft
- Statkraft
- Birka Energi
- Norsk Hydro
Each year we stage a "KWI Users Forum" - a 2-day event attended by leading
trading and risk staff from our clients. Last year there were about 100
delegates. The agenda primarily focusses on issues surrounding risk
management for the energy sector.
The agenda comprises keynote presentations on burning risk issues from
industry leading energy speakers and practical workshops focussed around
using our software.
This years event is at a luxury hotel in the wonderful Spanish city of
Barcelona and runs from the evening of Sunday September 9th to Tuesday
September 11th. The main conference dinner is on the Monday evening and is
always a memorable event. This year it is in a leading Barcelona restaurant
preceded by a bus tour of the city with a stop for pre-dinner drinks.
I would like to invite you to make the opening keynote address, the
highlight of the conference.
The subject could be:
* a general energy risk related topic
* a general insight into the secret of Enron's continued success in
the energy markets
* your thoughts on the future development on energy markets (and other
commodity related - bandwidth etc.) worldwide
Obviously, we would cover all your delagate costs including accomodation,
food and drink.
What's in it for you ? Many of our users are some the energy sectors
leading
risk thinkers and I'm sure you would enjoy meeting them and exchanging
views.
Please let me know if you are able to accept the invitation.
Best regards
David Warwick - Marketing Dierctor and Co-founder

Herb on TheStreet: Taking a Closer Look at the Honey Well
By Herb Greenberg
Senior Columnist
9/11/00 6:30 AM ET
An item in one of last week's Hotlines questioned whether a key "tell"
toward a possible preannouncement from Honeywell (HON:NYSE) was an
earnings warning from Invensys, a British controls and automation
company. Invensys is a Honeywell competitor, and Honeywell fans had
been looking at the company's controls group for signs of strength this
quarter. Got a bunch of angry email, in response, telling me I must be
a kook (or actually, something much worse ) because just a few weeks
ago Honeywell said it was comfortable with earnings estimates of 76
cents per share, which would be a pleasant 10% gain.
True, but this is, after all, the same Honeywell that in June gave
expectations of one thing for second-quarter revenues, only to amend
that a few weeks later with a lower number. And this is, after all, the
same Honeywell that several quarters ago said it would take no more big
charges, and then turned around and took a whole bunch of new charges.
Will the same thing happen this time round? Hard to say, and as of
Friday all a Honeywell spokesman would say to me was: "We're sticking
with our guidance." On earnings, that is. Interestingly (and subtly)
Honeywell didn't say anything about revenues in its recent update, and
the spokesman said there will be no revenue guidance now, either. Stung
once, too smart to be stung twice, I guess.
But that also highlights that Honeywell has entered the quarter with
negative revenue momentum, which is not what Wall Street wants to see.
Earnings can meet estimates lots of different ways (an item here back
in March showed how half of Honeywell's 20% earnings gain came from
pension income) but revenue represents business in the raw.
So, why worry now? According to one longtime Honeywell watcher, who
prefers to go incognito (so he can protect his relationship with the
company, in which he still holds a small stake), events that could
further effect this quarter's earnings and revenues include the sharp
rise in oil prices -- the same rise in oil prices that last week helped
clobber DuPont (DD:NYSE), which warned of lower earnings (thanks, in
part, to oil). Honeywell also disclosed that problems with brakes it
makes for buses will shave 2 cents per share off earnings. The warning
came after the earnings reassurance a couple of weeks ago, but was
included in the recent forecast. It's unclear, however, how the
problems will affect brake sales (and therefore revenues), going
forward. Oh, and Honeywell is laying off 5% of its workforce. (A
supposed growth company firing people?!) Then there are more charges,
lots of charges -- but the 76 cent per share number excludes them.
What's more, analysts are just starting to take a close look at the
company now that they're back from summer vacation. At least one
analyst who has tried to get some sign of how things are going was told
the company hasn't seen the August numbers yet, which means there still
could be reasons for concern.
All of that said, Honeywell has been doing loads to improve itself, but
our longtime Honeywell watcher, who is looking for the right time to
hop back in, doesn't think there'll be signs of a solid rebound until
next summer. At the earliest.
Short Positions
o From reader John Lee: "How's this for an inflation indicator? Down
here in our cafeteria today we were confronted by a sign that indicated
the cafeteria was raising prices "to cover rising food and labor
costs..." But inflation is nearly nonexistent, right? Right (he said,
sarcastically). Wouldn't be surprised to see a few fast-food chains
that missed earnings last quarter, because of rising costs, bite the
bullet and raise prices, too. (A dime or a quarter isn't going to drive
customers away; but a dime here at one place and a quarter there at
another would certainly lead to higher prices across the board. Or so
you'd think!)
o Stupid poll?!: That's what some folks thought of Friday's poll which
asked whether you should pay more attention to a company, friendly
analysts or unfriendly analysts. (Unfriendly won by a landslide.)
Several readers, however, wish I'd had a fourth alternative: All of the
above. Says reader Bridget Magnus: "I think that if a person is going
to make a realistic, informed decision about a company it is a good
idea to listen to all three of those sources (the company, friendly
analysts, and unfriendly analysts). Putting them together will give a
potential investor a much clearer picture of what is (or isn't) going
on." Great point! Which brings us to today's poll:
Feel free to send emails to my sidekick Mark Martinez with any reason
why you think the way you do. Cramer has pretty strong opinions about
this. And speaking of JJC, don't forget that he and I will be going
head-to-head at RealMoney.com's "Cramer Live" conference in San
Francisco later this month. Click here for more info.
o Bye, George: Marketing columnist George Lazarus of The Chicago
Tribune died Friday while commuting on the train to work. He was 68 and
he still wrote a daily column. He was a former colleague and I'd like
to think, a friend, whom I didn't keep in touch with nearly enough.
George wrote the textbook on how to be a hard-working, daily,
news-oriented columnist. You could see just how hard he worked when he
walked through the office at the end of every day, looking exhausted,
as he handed the finished copy into his editor. His salutation to me,
when he saw me was always, "Hey, scoop." Coming from the scoop, that
was an honor. Hey, George. -30-

Dear Professor Duffie,
I enclosed with this e-mail Enron Storage Valuation Model (ESVM) for your
review. The attached files include: 1) a brief documentation of the model
(ESVM.doc), 2) c-code of the main routines, 3) Excel spreadsheet interface,
4) ESVM.dll .
Dr. Vince Kaminski, Dr. Stinson Gibner and myself have spent about one year
in developing this model. With traders, feedback incorporated, the model
results are close to reality. Although there are features to be included, we
believe the model is ready for your review. We look forward to your comments
and suggestions.
Please feel free to contact me should you need additional detail.

Vince,
Greetings! I am the director of the MS in Computational Finance program at
Carnegie Mellon. I am following up on a conversation I had with Kevin
Kindall, a graduate of our program, who gave me your e-mail address and
suggested I contact you as the individual making the recruiting decisions
for the Research Group at Enron.
In speaking with the director of the Career Opportunity Center at the
business school, I am told that although an Alison Bailey from Enron
([email protected]) has arranged for a sizable block of rooms in
which to conduct interviews on campus on December 11th, there is as yet no
indication of whether the Comp Finance students will have opportunity to
compete for these spaces.
We are regarded by many in the industry as the top quantitative finance
program in the country. Focused on derivative pricing, econometrics, VAR
and portfolio management, our graduates should be an excellent fit for your
business. I would be happy to talk with you further about our
rogram( http://student.gsia.cmu.edu/mscf/) as well as our students' interest
in Enron (the name comes up a lot!). Also, if you are interested, we run a
"Speaker Series" on most Friday's during the fall and spring that would
give you (or another in your group) the opportunity to address our students
in an area of interest. Such a meeting would, I think, help you better
understand the careers our students are preparing to pursue as well as give
our students first hand knowledge of Enron and its future.
When might be a good time to contact you by telephone?
Thank you for your time.

Ian,
Sorry for a delay in responding to you.
I am currently in London, flying back to Houston tomorrow.
The problem is not with the lawyers. We worked on our presentation
materials together with a professor from another university
and we agreed to use these materials only internally.
We have to honor our commitment to him. I am sure
that this is exactly what you would have expected from us if we had
made a similar commitment to you.

The materials were prepared in collaboration with a professor

Dear Sir:
The Scientific computation group at the University of
Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, has recently started to be very
interested in the recent developments of the bandwidth
market. We find that the specifics of the bandwidth market
offer challenges from the modelling point
of view.
However, we have encountered difficulties when looking for
data, and we were wondering if you could help us. Specifically
we would like to know for a given city pair for the different
existing type of lines ( e.g. OC3, OC12, OC48 .... )
1. What has been the spot lease prices (e.g. $/line-type/mile) for
the past 12 months?
2. What is the price of the dark fiber for a given type of line?
3. What is the maintenance cost $/month ?
(for the same lines, e.g. OC3, OC12, OC48, ...)
4. What is the upgrading cost for the different lines?
(e.g. how much does it cost to upgrade)
OC3 --> OC12
OC3 --> OC48
OC12 --> OC48
5. How long does it take to upgrade a line from a certain
capacity to another (e.g. 1 month, 2 month, ...) ?
We realize that some of these questions may ask for confidential
data, in that case we would really appreciate if an order of magnitude
was provided. I look forward to hearing from you.
Sincerely,

Subject: Liz Demers research seminar
Dear faculty
Bob Westbrook and the accounting group has asked me to put together a
continuing series of research workshops in accounting. My intention is to
invite four or five researchers from around the country to present
workshops on topics of interest each year. These are in addition to the
normal recruiting seminars that we will have. The researchers will be a
combination of senior and junior researchers. In addition to adding to our
own research culture, the seminars should help promote the Jones School in
the academic accounting community.
My intention is to invite people that are doing very interesting work that
will be of interest to a large portion of the faculty. Given the small size
of the accounting group, success of the seminars is dependent in part on
the participation of faculty from other disciplines.
Our first seminar will be on February 16 from 10:30-12:00 and will be
conducted by Elizabeth Demers, a Stanford PhD and presently an assistant
professor at Rochester. Her paper is titled " A Rude Awakening: Internet
Shakeout in 2000" and co-authored with Baruch Lev ( a senior accounting
researcher at NYU).
The work should be of particular interest to faculty in Finance and those
interested in the valuation of internet companies and the value of
intellectual capital and non financial information. I expect that it will
be a very interesting seminar. Liz will arrive Thursday late afternoon and
be here all day on Friday. I invite any of you who would like to meet with
her or join us for a meal, to please let me know.
I will appreciate it if you could plan on attending at least some of our
seminars. I hope that the topics and presenters will be of interest.
Thanks for your support.

across the country
STAR Information Technology brings has the tools needed to help energy
companies gain knowledge. If it's information from OASIS to Market prices.
The events that change prices such as weather and more are always just one
click away with STAR Information Technologys' powerful portal tools. Our
Portal products are the difference between seeing and doing. Hosting dynamic
applications such as on-line reports, calendars, e-mail, and commerce
services create a one-stop shop for users to go about almost all of their
daily tasks: analyzing customer trends, checking schedules, viewing revenue-
or project-related performance metrics, and buying or selling products.
Combining all the information relevant to users' work with the ability to
act on that information enables organizations to get more done.
Five Government Agencies Deploy Plumtree Corporate Portal at Hundreds of
Facilities-
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Department of Energy (DOE),
Department of Defense, National Institutes of Health and Army Public Affairs
Center are deploying a Corporate Portal at facilities across the country as
part of ongoing governmental initiatives to maximize efficiency, develop
more online content and provide private sector levels of customer service.
The Plumtree Corporate Portal integrates regulatory, enforcement and
incident database reports, enterprise applications and Internet services
into the agencies' portals as Portal Gadgets(tm), plug-in modules that embed
components of applications and interactive Internet services in a
personalized portal page. The Portal growth in the public sector is driven
by its success applying business technology to the specific challenges of
government, empowering federal agencies to simplify access to their data,
reduce paperwork, benefit from the resources on the Internet and share
information securely with their employees, contractors and constituencies.

Subject: New Employee Service ) Turbo Tax
As tax season rapidly approaches, we are pleased to announce a new W-2
employee service. If you plan to file your personal income taxes through
TurboTax 2000 (Intuit's personal tax filing software) you will be able to
automatically download your W-2 information into the appropriate TurboTax
forms directly over the Internet for free.
Enron has chosen to provide this service to help speed the processing time
and accuracy of your return while supporting paperless processing.
More information regarding this service is listed below or visit
www.probusinesstaxes.com to find out more about the TurboTax software and
Web-based filing service.
Employee Fact Sheet: ProBusiness/Intuit W-2 service
Q. What is the Automated Tax Return (ATR) service?
A. Intuit Inc., makers of the popular Quicken TurboTax tax preparation and
filing software, have launched a new Automated Tax Return (ATR) service to
simplify tax preparation for TurboTax users. ATR allows users of TurboTax tax
preparation and filing software to import tax information from multiple
sources such as employers, brokerage houses, and mutual fund companies
directly into the correct TurboTax forms over the Internet. Since our
payroll tax provider, ProBusiness, has partnered with Intuit to provide this
service, you will be able to electronically download your individual W-2 data
from ProBusiness directly into TurboTax through the Internet for free. Also,
as part of this program, you can receive a 5% discount on all TurboTax and
Quicken products including shipping and handling (go to
www.probusinesstaxes.com for more information).
Q. So how does it work?
A. Embedded in each version of TurboTax 2000 (both the software and web
application) is a series of screens that will ask whether your employer
allows you to automatically download your data into TurboTax. To use the
free service, simply answer "yes" then select our payroll tax provider,
ProBusiness, from a drop-down list of providers which includes ProBusiness,
PeopleSoft, Ceridian, and seemyw2.com. Validate your request by entering
your social security number and W-2 box one data and your W-2 data will
automatically transfer via the Internet into the appropriate locations in the
TurboTax form.
Q. Is this a secure transaction?
A. Intuit,s TurboTax ATR service combines Open Financial Exchange (OFX), the
standard technology used in e-finance, with 128-bit military-grade encryption
to create an advanced security protocol that ensures the highest level of
security and confidentiality when obtaining financial data to populate your
TurboTax form over the Internet.
Q. How do I participate in this program?
A. Only employees using Intuit,s TurboTax 2000 tax preparation and filing
software can take advantage of this Web-based ATR service. TurboTax software
and the ATR Web-based filing service can be accessed at
www.probusinesstaxes.com.
Q. What if I already own TurboTax 2000(does this still work?
A. Yes, all copies of TurboTax 2000 contain the Automated Tax Return service
option.
Q. Overall what are the Benefits to me?
A. Using the ATR service provided by Intuit and ProBusiness, you can:
? Increase your probability of accurate filing.
? Eliminate the need to manually enter your W-2 information and other
financial data.
? Increase the overall speed of tax filing.

Subject: MS150 eNewsletter
Post-Tour eNewsletter
You did it! Another MS 150 has come and gone and we,ve already begun
preparing for next year. We were blessed with beautiful weather again this
year, although it was a little too warm on Sunday. On behalf of the Lone
Star Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, thank you for
supporting the 2000 ISUZU MS 150 presented by The Home Depot!
Also, thank you for all of your calls, letters, and emails about the bike
tour. We,re still receiving a lot of positive feedback from riders saying
that this was the best MS 150 ever. We know you,re anxious to hear some
results, so here,s the latest:
 7,500 people registered (2,440 registered online at
www.ms150.org)
 Approximately 6,500 people actually rode (based on packets picked
up)
 Total online donations at www.ms150.org as of April 28 = $186,389
 Number of hits per day at www.ms150.org = 65,000 +
 We,re still collecting and processing pledges daily, so we don,t
know how much money we,ve raised yet. However, it looks like we,re well on
our way to raising $3 million, if not more! If so, this will be the first
time any MS bike tour has ever raised $3 million! Please help us by
getting all pledges turned in by May 19.
 We,re thankful and proud to announce that there were no serious
injuries on the Tour this year. Yes, we did transport one rider via
life-flight to Memorial Herman Hospital for precautionary measures, but he
was treated and released on Saturday evening and he was back in La Grange
by 9:00 p.m.! His brother rode the MS 150 as well, so he wanted to be
there for the finish. He suffered a broken rib and is reportedly doing
fine. All other riders were treated and released by Monday morning. Most
of the medical emergencies were heat related. As you know, it was very hot
on Sunday and people simply weren't staying hydrated.
There are so many people who make this ride happen ) most of which are
volunteers. We couldn,t do the ride without our wonderful volunteers so we
can,t say thank you enough. Over half the riders participate on a
corporate or social team and each has their own group of volunteers. We'd
like to thank each of you for everything you do; we know it's a lot of
hard work!
We,d also like to introduce and thank the rest of the staff of the Lone
Star Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. You may have seen
them on the route and/or at the Expo on Friday:

The numbers are not small, but really do not reflect the true magnitude of

Kevin,
I would like to invite you to an off-site meeting of John Griebling's
organization
and the Research Group.
Date: April 27 - April 29
Location: Breckenridge, Colorado
As you know, John Griebling is managing the network design and construction
project
currently under way in EBS. The Research Group is actively involved in this
effort
which requires advanced quantitative skills in the area of stochastic
optimization and
stochastic processes (for modeling and forecasting Internet traffic flows).
The objective of this meeting is to develop common language and accomplish
transfer
of skills between the two groups, to facilitate cooperation on this project
in the future.
We are inviting Ken Rice and Joe Hirko to this meeting. We would appreciate
if you could
speak, together with Joe and Ken, on strategic directions of EBS. It is
important for a group
of technical people, with relatively specialized technical skills, to
understand the big picture.
I am attaching the preliminary agenda for this meeting.

Vincent,
Congratulations on spearheading the Mind's Eye Madness event - it looks like
quite a success. My biggest disappointment is that I am leaving Enron this
week and have been too busy to participate as much as I would like. I have
had continued interest in the work and presentations that Amy Oberg has
done, so would have really enjoyed the workshop yesterday. I am still
considering doing some or all of the Motorcade Friday, however that may
work.
Separately, thanks for the update in the lobby today on the Enterprise Risk
project. Please keep in touch with me. As I mentioned, my redeployment
period ends tomorrow (April 26), but I currently do not have an outside job
lined up and still have a lot of interest in the project if something can be
worked out over the next few weeks. Although he is not in the same group as
David Port, I have worked a lot with Brad Larson in the RAC underwriting
group - he may be a good source of information on me also.

I'll send you the DASH that was done previously for the used LNG tanker, the
Mystic Lady (now renamed as the Hoegh Galleon). The analysis used in this
transaction was not detailed due the short time-frame we had to analyze this
transaction as well as to Enron's right to terminate this charter for

When this analysis has progressed far enough that we have a draft DASH, I

Dear Dr. Kaminski
My name is Jaesoo Lew and I am referred by Dr. Wayne Lee.
Currently I've been working at Aquila Energy in Kansas City as an pricing
analyst since July 2000. Since then, I have developed a natural gas storage
valuation model applying the swing options (forest method) pricing approach.
The price processes would be considered critical for the storage valuation
since a trinomial forest is required to value storage. Also the c++
programming using Excel DLL has been developed, too.
I attached my resume to this message for your consideration and am looking
forward to talking about an opportunity at Enron.
My home phone number is 913-649-0578, Dr. Kaminski, I will wait your call in
this week as Dr. Lee informed me. If possible, please let me know your
expected calling day through the mail. I appreciate your consideration.
Thank you very much.
Sincerely,
Jaesoo Lew

Subject: Re: American type swaption calculations.
David:
On #1, I would say the problem is not with the calculation part, but with
the market information, or lack thereof (i.e., illiquidity). The gas desk is
responsible for the supplying prices and volatilities. It is upto them to
decide how they want to account for illiquidy: change the bid/offer spreads
accordingly, or add hedging costs, or something else. And on the
correlations, they do matter but not as much as volatility or price. Since
these are correlations for the same underlying at the same location across
time, I think we can make some reasonable assumptions and compute them.
Regarding #2, I don't agree with the concept of a market top. What the desk
does with the options is to hedge them. And the way to hedge them is hedge
teh delta and exercise the options optimally at the same time.
Finally, I don't think we can use a 2-year swap as a proxy for a 10-year
swap. Longer term prices and volatilies are driven by the cost of production
and economic variables and their uncertainities. Those don't necessarily
reflect the shorter term issues.
Have a great Thanksgiving,
Krishna.

News for derivatives and risk management professionals
===================================================================
Dear Subscriber,
Welcome to RiskNews Update!
Top news this week included early findings by credit ratings agency
Standard & Poor,s that internationally active banks may find it is cheaper
to use the standardised risk management approach to capital management
rather than the internal ratings based (IRB) system. Early findings that
IRB, as laid out in the Basel Committee's new capital Accord proposals,
may cost banks more in terms of capital appears contrary to the +spirit,
of the de facto international banking regulator,s proposals. Next week,
RiskNews will print exclusive coverage of the International Swaps and
Derivatives Association,s (Isda,s) response to Basel as part of our
extensive coverage of Isda,s 16th Annual General Meeting in Washington.
With consolidation seeming imminent for the plethora of electronic trading
platform providers, electronic derivatives trading platform Blackbird,s
chief executive Andy Baxter admitted having difficulties encouraging
dealers to move away from phone broking. In a separate development, JP
Morgan Chase selected multi-bank FX trading portal Atriax as its
electronic portal ) a move seen by industry observers as a blow to rival
portal FXall, which was strongly backed by the pre-merger JP Morgan.
Meanwhile, Citigroup,s top FX salesman Martin Dyer pans to take +time-out,
from his post after 20 years, clearing the way for Lars Olesen to be
appointed global FX sales manager of Citibank Foreign Exchange in London.

Jeff,
Our friends at the University of Texas are planning a conference on energy
economics and finance in February of next year. They would like very much to
have
you as a keynote speaker.
Given our good, long-term relationship with UT, I would recommend
that you speak at this conference. I talked to Prof. Ehud Ronn
a few times about the program and I think that this will be
an excellent forum to present Enron's accomplishments and
agenda for the future.
I am sure that Rick Causey will join me in making the same recommendation.

Subject: Software License
Dear Ms. Geman,
I met with Vince Kaminski yesterday regarding picking back up with the
license agreement we were working on back in March. He relayed some
additional requirements which need to be added to the agreement, which
include the following:
1. The price agreed upon is $90,000.
2. D-G will provide system support.
3. No later than 12 months of execution of the agreement, D-G will provide
the source code to Enron. In the meantime, the source code is to be in
escrow. Additionally, the source code would be released sooner than the 12
months if any of the following conditions occur: (i) D-G goes out of
business; (ii) D-G is unable to provide effective technical support; or (iii)
if D-G agrees to release it sooner.
Before I have our attorney add these things to the agreement, we need to
discuss the escrow situation. Vince mentioned that you had suggested that
your attorney keep the software in escrow. Is your attorney a U.S.
attorney? It seems like I may have recalled that way back in March you might
have said you had a friend or relative that was an attorney. Is that the
same person? Does this attorney work for a large firm, small firm, or solo
practitioner? Basically, if you could just provides some additional
information about your attorney, I would appreciate it.
We normally would use an Escrow company to put the software in escrow. We
have dealt with a company here in the U.S. called DSI Technology. I will
check into that pending your answer regarding your attorney.
Once we decide what we want to do regarding placing the software in escrow,
we will red-line the agreement to reflect such changes and e-mail it back to
you for your review.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Jeff,
I cannot interview Howard on Tue (business trip).
I think the organization is very interested in him.
I don't know what "illicts your attention" means.

Subject: Howard Confirmation
Hi Vince, I'm on vacation from Friday (today) until Tuesday. Rachel/London
sent me this confirmation last night and think it illicts your attention- Did
they get it right to meet you satisfaction? I hope your interview goes well
with Howard too. It's all set.
Any feedback on the guys from Ford Credit and Citigroup/Oxford University? I
own them outright- no other firms involved! FYI: My fees are always much less
on these candidates (exclusive ownership by myself) as there are no middlemen
involved from these "other firms". I luckily have been attracting very
talented candidates with just doing business "as myself" rather than MRI. I
am very encouraged. Please check them out, Vince... as you know- I always
send you them first then on to my other clients -if you reject them.
Bye Vince, Thank you for the business!
Jeff
PS- Use my cellphone if you want me (the next 4 days) for anything; I'm here

These are coming out of the walls and some are very funny!
NOTICE OF REVOCATION OF INDEPENDENCE
To the citizens of the United States of America: In
the light of your failure to
elect a president of the U.S.A. and thus to govern
yourselves, we hereby
give notice of the revocation of your independence,
effective today. Her
Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume
monarchial duties over
all states, commonwealths and other territories
(except Utah, which she
does not fancy). Your new prime minister (The rt.
hon. Tony Blair, MP for
the 97.85 percent of you who have until now been
unaware that there is a
world outside your borders) will appoint a minister
for America without the
need for further elections. Congress and the Senate
will be disbanded. A
questionnaire will be circulated next year to
determine whether any of you
noticed. To aid in the transition to a British
Crown Dependency, the
following rules are introduced with immediate
effect:
1.You should look up "revocation" in the Oxford
English Dictionary.
Then look up "aluminum." Check the
pronunciation guide. You will
be amazed at just how wrongly you have been
pronouncing it.
Generally, you should raise your vocabulary to
acceptable levels.
Look up "vocabulary." Using the same 27 words
interspersed with
filler noises such as "like" and "you know" is
an unacceptable and
inefficient form of communication. Look up
"interspersed."
2.There is no such thing as "U.S. English." We
will let Microsoft know
on your behalf.
3.You should learn to distinguish the English
and Australian
accents. It really isn't that hard.
4.Hollywood will be required occasionally to
cast English actors as
the good guys.
5.You should relearn your original national
anthem, "God Save The
Queen," but only after fully carrying out task
1. We would not want
you to get confused and give up halfway
through.
6.You should stop playing American "football."
There is only one kind
of football. What you refer to as American
"football" is not a very
good game. The 2.15 percent of you who are
aware that there is a
world outside your borders may have noticed
that no one else
plays "American" football. You will no longer
be allowed to play it,
and should instead play proper football.
Initially, it would be best if
you played with the girls. It is a difficult
game. Those of you brave
enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby
(which is similar to
American "football," but does not involve
stopping for a rest every
20 seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour
like nancies). We
are hoping to get together at least a U.S.
rugby sevens side by
2005.
7.July 4th is no longer a public holiday.
November 8th will be a new
national holiday, but only in England. It will
be called "Indecisive
Day."
8.All American cars are hereby banned. They are
crap and it is for
your own good. When we show you German cars,
you will
understand what we mean.
9.Please tell us who killed JFK. It's been
driving us crazy.
Thank you for your cooperation.

Subject: Benefits - Personal Days
Vince:
Is the following all right to send to the group?
******************************************************************************
********
Good morning all:
The question has arisen as to whether Enron has "personal days", that,
you can take in case of repair problems at home; car problems; sick spouse,
sick child, etc.
I checked with HR and the Policy Manual and the answer is "no", but they
can be designated at the discretion of the supervisor. I talked this over
with Vince and he has decided that the Research Group will be allowed
two (2) personal days per year to take care of personal business and
not have to take a vacation day, discretionary day, or leave of absence.
If you have advance notice (such as an air conditioner repair scheduled),
please let me know when you are going to take these days. If an
emergency arises with no notice, please call in and let me know that you
are taking a personal day. It will be coded on your time sheet.
These two personal days will in no way cancel or take the place of, "funeral
leave", "family leave", or "civic duty leave". They are just a way of being
able to take care of repair problems and other personal problems that arise.
These should be very beneficial and I am sure very much appreciated by
all of us.
If you have any questions, please call me.

Subject: Visit to Enron
Hello Vince,
It was nice seeing you at Stanford and many thanks for the lunch
we had together. I really enjoyed our discussions, both at the
technical level and otherwise.
I promised to send you an e-mail regarding possible dates for
a visit to Enron. I delayed it for a week till my schedule was
clearer. Let's see if we can get a match with your schedule -
mine is rather terrible:
Friday, 21st of April looks good. But April 23rd is Easter
Sunday, so that may make it difficult for some people at Enron
to be around. Let me know if that is the case. I am willing to
visit then, because the week after that I am scheduled to be in
Japan and in the previous weeks I am all committed on Fridays.
Friday, 19th of May is the next possibility, but this probably
is too far out. The main problem is that I am operating within
a window of opportunity for attracting top students for this
research. This window closes by the end of April, and it would be
important for the student support funds to be in place then, so
that I can make hard commitments to students and attract top
talent. I am already reviewing files of students who have
approached me for PhD advising, and I am in a mode of doing "soft
commitments to star-level students" to get this research and its
potential on their radar screen. Top students are highly sought
after by advisors and I want to be an early player in this
competition.
Does my visit to Enron have to happen before we can set up the
project and student support at Stanford? If so, doing it before the
end of April is important for getting top people. If the visit can
happen after we get the ball rolling, then we can schedule it in May.
I assume there will be multiple visits both ways when the project gets
going. Please let me know what you think.
Best Regards,
Nick

To: Dogbert's New Ruling Class (DNRC)
From: Scott Adams ([email protected])

Highlights:
------------------------------------------------
- Shakespeare Debunked
- Daily Dilbert by E-mail
- Induhvidual Debating Techniques
- True Tales of Induhviduals
- Dogbert Answers My Mail
------------------------------------------------
DNRC Update
-----------
The DNRC has a whopping 330,000 members, each one so shockingly
attractive and intelligent that he or she can be used as a
defibrillator. If you see someone whose heart has stopped, yell
"clear" then press your hands on the person's chest (do not make
the "honk-honk" sound if the victim is female) then start telling a
witty joke. This method has never actually started anyone's heart,
but sometimes the bystanders get a kick out of it.
After Dogbert conquers the world you will have dominion over the
so-called In-duh-viduals. A DNRC member suggests that Induhviduals
above the age of 18 be called adolts. I like that. I propose that
the ones under 18 be called juvenile duh-linquents.

Shakespeare Hoax
----------------
I have come to the unsettling realization that Shakespeare was an
Induhvidual. In case you haven't read any Shakespeare since you
were a gullible child, here's a little sampling of the Great Bard's
work from Macbeth:
-- start --
"That which hath made them drunk hath made me bold;
What hath quench'd them hath given me fire.
Hark! Peace!
It was the owl that shriek'd, the fatal bellman,
Which gives the stern'st good-night. He is about it:
The doors are open; and the surfeited grooms
Do mock their charge with snores: I have drugg'd their possets,
That death and nature do contend about them,
Whether they live or die."
-- end --
Now, maybe someone drugg'd my posset, but I'm fairly certain that
none of that makes any sense.
When I was a kid, if something made no sense to me, I assumed the
problem was on my end. But now that I am an adult, and I know
everything there is to know, I realize that the source of most
confusion is Induhviduals - sometimes economists, occasionally
poltergeists, but mostly Induhviduals.
Maybe the word "bard" meant something different a few hundred years
ago and that's what caused the confusion - as in, "He was so full
of bard you could grow squash in his earholes."
Or maybe some Irish people attended Shakespeare's plays and said
they were BORED, but it came out sounding like BARD to the English.
That could've happened.
There's really no excuse for Shakespeare's shoddy work. If you
were Shakespeare, and you had nothing to do all day but sit around
in huge pants and write plays, don't you think you could at least
make them comprehensible? To me, that seems like the minimum
requirement for a play: The audience should have a vague idea of
what the actors are saying.
I'm certain that the fans of Shakespeare will tell me I would enjoy
his work if only I took the time to understand it. But that's like
saying I would love polka music if I took the time to translate it
in my head into the sound of a band I like.
I guess I just expect more from my bards.
Induhvidual Debating Technique
------------------------------
Lately I have found myself in e-mail discussions with Induhviduals
who employ debating tactics that are very similar. I suspect they
are learning these methods in some sort of top-secret Induhvidual
training facility.
The Induhvidual debating technique involves four steps:
1. Exaggerate your opponent's statement into an absurd absolute.
2. Make an inappropriate analogy.
3. Change the topic to something easier to defend.
4. Claim victory.
For example:
Me: Vegetables are good for you.
Induhvidual: That's ridiculous. If you ate a truckload of
vegetables all at once you would die.
Me: No one eats a truckload all at once.
Induhvidual: Let me give you an analogy. If you tried to swim
across the ocean, and you didn't know how to swim,
and you had no arms or legs, you'd never make it.
Surely you can agree with that.
Me: Um...that's different.
Induhvidual: Ha! So now you agree with me that swimming is good
exercise!
The worst part is that not only will you be frustrated at your
inability to make your point, you will be branded as the person who
thinks swimming is bad exercise.
True Tales of Induhviduals
--------------------------
Here are some more True Tales of Induhviduals as reported by
brilliant and observant DNRC members.
True Tale 1
-----------
My company posted a notice next to the time clock. It said the
company calendar had a typo, that the union-won holiday wasn't
really a holiday at all. The company blamed the printer for this
mistake. (Nice try.)
But that's not the funny part. The first line of the notice said,
"Please Take Notice." So the guy standing next to me took it.
True Tale 2
-----------
There are two doors in the restroom at work. One is the exit and
the other, on the other side of the room, is a closet. The closet
door is clearly labeled "closet."
The other day I was using the restroom and I heard an Induhvidual
open a door and exclaim, "Darn it! That's the closet again!"
True Tale 3
-----------
My boss had recently learned how to use spreadsheet software. He
proudly called me into his office to show me a new trick he'd
learned. At one point during his demonstration he was moving his
mouse toward himself and it reached the edge of his desk. I watched
in amazement as he deftly rolled his mouse around the edge of the
desk and underneath.
I stifled my giggling and politely said, "You know, you don't need
to do that with the mouse." Whereupon he took offense and said, "I
know. I usually grab a book and put it next to the desk and roll
the mouse onto it, but I just can't reach my books right now." I
said, "Yeah, that's what I do," and excused myself before I broke a
rib trying not to laugh.
True Tale 4
-----------
I attend one of the top universities in the UK. My housemate
recently surpassed his usual high standard of stupidity. He needed
to open a bottle. After hanging around looking helpless, someone
handed him a wine opener (the corkscrew type) that had a bottle
opener on one end. My housemate disappeared for five minutes and
reappeared with an apologetic look on his face. "I've broken it.
I'm sorry."
Under questioning he confessed that he had been trying to screw the
corkscrew through the top of the metal bottle cap.
True Tale 5
-----------
A VP of our company stood up at our company meeting and asked all
employees to look over the new website to make sure it was
"grammerly correct."
True Tale 6
-----------
My friend asked to be moved to a cubicle in a quieter place in the
office and her manager agreed. A couple of days later, the office
manager came by her new cube, distressed. He said that he had
really messed up because he gave her a cube that was too big for
her level/title in the company. Her cube was for a P-2 engineer
while she was only a P-1. The difference in size was only two
inches, but still, something had to be done.
A few days later, the office manager returned and said that to fix
the problem, my friend would be promoted to P-2 so she would then
be in the right size cube.
True Tale 7
-----------
Recently the Southern Hemisphere was treated to a total lunar
eclipse. During this event one Induhvidual standing in my street
suggested that we photograph it. Someone explained that the moon
would be difficult to photograph because it was completely darkened
by the shadow of Earth. Her response was, "What about if I use the
flash?"
True Tale 8
-----------
A customer returned to our wireless phone store with the phone she
had recently purchased. She complained that the phone worked fine
for the first two days and then suddenly went dead. I asked her how
long she had charged the battery. She replied, "What do you mean,
charge?"
Upon further interrogation it became clear that she thought the
one- year warranty on the battery meant it would last that long.
True Tale 9
-----------
This is a True Tale that involves a sign I spotted nailed to a tree
along a dirt road somewhere in Iowa:
I lost 75 lbs.

True Tale 10
------------
I recently went into a pizza shop in Katoomba (near Sydney,
Australia) that advertised, "log fire inside." Next to the fully
enclosed, glass-fronted firebox was a sign, "Please don't touch the
fire."
True Tale 11
------------
I work at a secure R&D facility in the electronics industry. One
day a sign at the guard's desk located in the front lobby said,
"Guard is on rounds. Visitors wait here!"
Being an upstanding DNRC member, I took it upon myself to add (in
big, bold letters) "...and don't steal my laptop!!!"
True Tale 12
------------
About four years ago we had a multiple choice test for one of our
digital design subjects. A friend of mine had no clue in this
subject but could clearly see the answers of the person to his
left. So he copied them.
At the end of the exam we were informed that there were
TWO tests, alternating by row! He had cheated off the wrong test!
But he got a good grade anyway!! Why? Because the person he had
cheated off had cheated off the person sitting next to him! Moral
of the story: Two Induhviduals make a right.
True Tale 13
------------
The other day at the gas station, while waiting in line to pay for
my gas, I commented to another customer how expensive gasoline had
become. Her reply was, "You know, it doesn't really affect me; I
always put in twenty dollars every time I gas up."
True Tale 14
------------
I was in a meeting with a manager - one of those meetings where the
sole purpose is for her to make a speech and everyone to be
impressed - and she showed an example of how the figures would be
added up. It became apparent that she had no idea how you add or
subtract negative numbers. I pointed out that the result of her
first example was wrong. What followed was a lively debate on how
you are meant to add or subtract negative numbers. The prevailing
opinion was that there wasn't just one correct way of doing it, so
all the different manufacturers of calculators went with their own
conventions. I was told that my calculator worked differently than
hers. (And how many meetings have you been to that included a
concurrent test of two calculators?)
The meeting ended with her bemoaning the fact that she wasn't
getting any "buy-in" for her idea. A few days later she received,
anonymously, a picture of Prof. Stephen Hawking, with the caption,
"You must be at least this smart to invent your own branch of
math."
True Tale 15
------------
An Induhvidual in my physics class did his math with a pen. He had
to use lots of Liquid Paper to cover the mistakes. It was
recommended to him that he use a pencil. The next day I saw him
covering his pencil marks with Liquid Paper.
True Tale 16
------------
A few days ago I went to the copy place. I needed 80 copies. The
guy told me that if I made fewer than 100 copies, each copy would
cost 4 cents. But if I made at least 100 copies I would get the
discounted rate of 2 cents per copy.
I told him to make 80 copies of the front of the document and make
20 copies of the blank back. I could use the blank paper later on
for other purposes. He probably never thought of this situation
before; he gave me an angry look but copied the documents anyway.
True Tale 17
------------
While waiting for a subway train, I overhead a woman complain
about the service: "I leave my apartment every day at the same
time, and every day I'm fifteen minutes late for work."
True Tale 18
------------
This is a direct quote from a newsletter I just received. It is the
summer vacation edition and includes this tip on a list of
"Luggage-Packing Secrets of the Pros."
"SECRET TIP #3: Double the security of luggage padlocks
with economical electrical ties. Since they must be cut
to be removed, they're tamper-evident. (Remember to pack
scissors!)"
Um...and where do you pack those scissors?
True Tale 19
------------
After pulling a ditsy temp secretary off phone duty (she put my
phone number instead of the caller's on phone messages), I assigned
her to something safe: labeling files. This task did not include
the filing itself, which would have required a thorough grasp of
the alphabet; it only involved affixing colorful self-adhesive
labels to the outside edge of each file indicating the contract
number. The Induhvidual cheerfully labeled throughout the
afternoon, completing 150 files. The next day, my regular
secretary asked why our files had been sealed closed with colorful
self-adhesive labels.
True Tale 20
------------
This is one I actually heard several years ago.
"We've got to separate the weed from the shaft."
Invent Your Own Folk Saying
----------------------------
Sometimes I sit around inventing clever folk sayings in case I ever
need them. Here are some of the ones I've come up with. You might
have seen some of these in Dilbert books.
I was happier than a kitten with a Q-tip.
He was deader than a shrunken head at a Hackey Sack festival.
I was busier than a beaver in a coffee lake.
He changed more times than a baby in a beer-drinking contest.
I was more nervous than a fan store owner with a comb-over.
He was tenser than Jesse Jackson on Father's Day.
If you have any good ones of your own, send them to me at
[email protected]. I'll publish the best ones in the next
newsletter.
Dilberito
---------
I've been reading a lot about Mad Cow disease. Scientists aren't
sure what's causing it. My theory is that the cows are mad because
we keep eating them.
The obvious solution is to eat Dilberitos instead. They're
vegetarian, yummy, and have 100% of your daily values of vitamins
and minerals. Check Dilberito.com for availability.
If your college cafeteria doesn't carry them yet, see if your
credits can be transferred to someplace that does.

Dogbert Answers My Mail
-----------------------
In this section Dogbert answers the mail that I am too polite to
answer myself. These are all based on real e-mail. The names have
been changed to make them funnier.
Dear Mr. Adams,
My boyfriend enjoys your comics. I usually give him Dilbert books
for presents, and I was wondering if you had any books that would
be an appropriate fit for Valentine's Day?
Heather
Dear Heavybreather,
It's a bit late, but I recommend the latest Dilbert compilation, A
Treasury of Sundays. If that doesn't put your boyfriend in the
mood for hot love it's probably because you cut your hair short so
you would save time getting ready in the morning.
Sincerely,
Dogbert

Dear Mr. Adams,
It's been a while since I worked at a company that uses buzzwords
and mission statements. This one caught me off guard. I thought
you might know the meaning...
"OPERATIONALIZING THE STRATEGIES"
Dennis
Dear Densest,
The phrase OPERATIONALIZING THE STRATEGIES can be understood by
breaking it down into its components:
OPERATIONALIZING = Remove internal organs using sharp instruments
THE = Put them in a paper bag
STRATEGIES = Light on fire, put on neighbor's porch, ring doorbell
Sincerely,
Dogbert
--
Dear Mr. Adams,
I have totally missed the humor of today's Dilbert comic. Please
point me in the direction of the meaning, unless you don't care, in
which case just ignore me. Or have Dogbert insult me in the next
newsletter. That would be neat too.
Gilbert
Dear Goober,
Please give me your address and I will have the answer delivered to
your house immediately. Look for it in a flaming paper bag on your
porch.
Sincerely,
Dogbert

[Note: I swear this next letter is real.]
Mr. Adams:
I have looked at(read) dilbert for one month and to this day I have
found nothing(and I mean nothing) interlectual or funny about your
column. Are you trying to show us(me) how stupid we are by reading
this trash? Well, you have succeded in that endeavor---- but no
more----I read the comics for entertainment and a good outlook for
the day. Dilbert only diffuses that feeling. Thanks but no thanks,
G. Hitopoulos
Dear Hippopotamus,
I'm sorry you found nothing interlectual about the Dilbert comic
strip. Mr. Adams will try harder to succede.
Sincerely,
Dogbert

it in a Dilbert comic or newsletter. The best comic fodder
involves workplace peeves, devious strategies, frustrations of
dealing with others, conflicting objectives, unintended management
consequences, and of course my favorite - idiot bosses.
And I love True Tales of Induhviduals.
And if you're seeing any new management trends that need to be

Clayton,
We can discuss your request when I come back to the office on Monday.
Regarding the trip to Portland. Such a trip requires an explicit prior
permission from your boss,
myself in his absence, or Stinson in my and Vasant's absence.
In case you did not ask for such a permission before, the request is denied.

Subject: status
Vasant-
I hope you had a wonderful vacation back home, and are rested and recovered
from the long flight back.
I wanted to give you an update of the EOL project, the Gas Model, and of my
intentions here at Enron.
Software (in compiled C on the Unix platform) has been developed and debugged
to listen to the EOL trades, process them, book them, and file them away. In
addition, software has been developed and debugged to mark these to market on
a continual basis, and to store the entirety of open positions on EOL in a
dynamic matrix facilitating analysis. IT has yet to get back with me on how
the software can be informed of those trades ultimately rejected for credit
purposes.
These data files are stored in a format for reading by Excel or by SAS, for
which I have written the data step program and basic tabulation routines
elucidating the structure of the data.
I am in the process of documenting all of this for you.
With regards the Gas Model and its slow performance on the Compaq, Dell has
agreed to loan me one of their competing machines to the Compaq, to see if
the performance issue of the LP is related to the Compaq. I have been
researching this issue with IT here and with Compaq and Dell. The new machine
will be here any day now (no financial obligation to anyone), and I will be
able to immediately ascertain whether the problem the model is having is
Compaq-specific.
I am also in the process of documenting the Gas Model for you.
I've tried to do my best for you, Vasant, but I have been frustrated by not
only the death of my mother but some internal systems in IT here. Just the
other day, SAS could not open a full query of the EOL database because there
wasn't enough free space on the server's hard drive for the workfiles. In
discussing some of these issues with some good friends of mine in power
trading, people whom I have known for over 10 years, they indicated they were
ubiquitous here. The power traders have similar PC's to my new one, and they
have complained from Day 1 that theirs are slower than their old ones. Also,
there remains a large frustration with the development of data warehouses;
during my brief tenure here IT has gone through two differing proposals as to
how to address this. When I have been told of tools available for real-time
data harvesting, my requests for such have typically been met with "well, we
have it, but we haven't really tested it yet." An example is the weather: we
still do not record to disk the hourly NWS observations from the GOES
satellite.
My interests here are to help Enron to do well, because I will do well only
if Enron does well. These aren't empty words- my IRA is 100% invested in the
Enron stock fund. I believe my best contributions to Enron will be in the
areas of systems as well as modeling, and the difficulty working in the
Research Group, in terms of systems development, is that, frankly, few people
at Enron seem to care what a researcher thinks about our systems. We aren't
directly generating revenues for Enron, and we aren't really their customers,
except in our relatively small deparrtmental infrastructure expenses.
As it happens, Power Trading posted an opening for a Modeling and Forecasting
person, and I spoke with them and they asked me to take the job, reporting to
George Hopley. It is a wonderful opportunity for me, Vasant, as they are
interested in large system modelng of power grids as well as improving their
traders' access to real-time fundamentals data. I was completely candid with
Kevin Presto regarding my shortcomings here in Research- I told him you were
disgusted with me because I repeatedly failed to meet time deadlines. They
also understand I have yet to be at Enron for 1 year, and thus may only bid
on a job with your permission. We agree the move is good for Enron; we all
work for Enron, and your acquiescence to the move does not endorse it but
merely permit it. They are comfortable with me- they have known me for years
as a hard worker, honest and unpretensive. They have already ordered a
state-of-the-art Unix workstation and server for me, and they have told me
they will commit whatever resources are necessary for me to be successful,
including hiring an Analyst to work for me. And, I have already been able to
teach their analysts improved techniques for data harvesting and analysis I
have learned here.
So, I am requesting your permission to bid for this job opening. It would be
a lateral move in position and salary, and I would commit to you to help you
in any way possible in the future with regards the Gas Model or the EOL
database. I will continue to work on their improvement, and complete their
documentation.
As it happens, I am away on Enron business in Portland Monday and Tuesday,
and will be back Wednesday. I had wanted to talk face-to-face instead of by
email, but Enron business supercedes- I am on a team designing the data
warehouse for floor trader support.
Clayton.

Subject: Understanding Risk and Return of an Insurance Portfolio
Hi Vince,
I am enclosing a report on my thoughts about risk and return behaviour of an
insurance portfolio. Your input on this will be very helpful.
I have given Vasant a copy of this report and am working with him towards
improving this. In the mean time, I happened to mention this idea in a
meeting with David Porter, Per Sekse, Brad Blesie and David Hoog and there
seems to be some interest in understanding how this works. In fact, David
Hoog subsequently reviewed this with me and suggested some changes. Those
changes have been included in this report.
The idea here is simple and just a starting point. While it provides a broad
picture on how risk and return will behave at portfolio level, I am hoping
to be able to relax some of the assumptions to get more realistic picture in
near future.
Looking forward to your input,
Sincerely,
Amitava

Here is Matt's resume as a MSWord doc.

Steve,
Thanks a lot. I think that having the pseudo code will go a long way towards
understanding how the system works and making sure that there are no
bugs in translation of a business problem (for example, complicated
credit insurance deals with multiple triggers and conditionality) into the
code.
Regarding Tanya's attitude. Just a few points.
1. I don't think she has the skills to do the system administrator's work
and she does not have the
necessary privileges. This explains why she keeps asking Winston for help.
It's
not that the work is beneath her.
2. Some members of Tanya's team came to me complaining about Winston.
He effectively told them to go away and work on the "research projects"
and that he would take care of the IT issues. I don't think that it's just
Tanya's issue,
though I agree that a more outgoing personality would be helpful.
3. The reality of this situation is that the internal customers beat on
Tanya and
me whenever there is any performance problems and/or they intuitively
disagree with the results of a run. They could not care less about the
demarcation line between IT and Research. They also want Tanya
to sign off on the model and she cannot do it without full access to the code.
The bottom line is that we are in full agreement: Tanya and
Winston have to work as a team and I shall work on my end to make sure that
it happens.
Credit is emerging as a critical issue for Enron for the next few weeks and
the system cannot fail.

Subject: Progress
Vince,
I got feedback from the lunchtime research meeting that you were talking
about some specific solutions to performance of IT systems... In particular
distributed processing. Also I heard that you had concerns about the use of
multiple languages etc....
Both of these sound like what I was discussing with you on previous
occasions... Do you feel the need to discuss these further?
The multi-language issue isn't really that much of an issue, as the current
system is 98% java right now. Although I am a big fan of C/C++(it is my main
development skill) , I am also very aware that Java is a much more evolved
and robust language. I had serious doubts about the performance, but I've had
a review conducted, and the results are showing the Sun Unix implementation
to be nearly as fast and in some cases faster than C/C++ because of something
they call Hot-Spot technology. (its an instruction caching technique, I
believe). The concerns I expressed to you, were really about how technical
people justify the use of a language on the strength of a relatively
meaningless metric like portability.
On the issue of distributed processing... the original review I had conducted
by our architecture group pointed to that as a solution, and as Zhiyong Wei
is already working on Global Valuation project, Winston is actively working
with Zhiyong to see if he can model the VaR architecture on that, and also to
find a common Valuation piece between the systems.
I'd like the opportunity to talk to you about these issues if you have some
time over the next few days?
Also, I sat in on the Tanya / Winston meeting yesterday and as per our
discussion at the elevator, I attempted to help her argument by suggesting to
all present that she was trying to perform triage on the code... I.e.
Seperating research domain problems from IT problems.
She said that stepping through code was the only real way in which she could
get a feel for where performance bottlenecks were. I asked her how she would
measure that, and she said she would instrument the code manually by
inserting timing elements at strategic points. I mentioned that a profiling
tool could probably do this job for her. Tanya again said that stepping
through code is the only way she can get an idea of the code, and that
studying documentation wasn't enough.
About 6 weeks ago, I commissioned a team to document the system down to
psuedo-code level and will be able to provide this to you and your team soon.
(in fact I've asked for a draft copy to be given to Tanya right now), and
Winston is also working on a draft Research/IT "working together" document,
which will identify how the exchange of information takes place.
Tanya also gave the impression that she wants a dedicated IT developer to do
all the environment setup for her, because she doesn't really want to have to
do that. I think that this is probably the root cause of the issue. The IT
guys are working very hard and her handling of the situation is not good, as
it gives the impression that this kind of work is beneath her. She is
claiming that they are un-cooperative.... they are claiming that she
continually asks the same questions about set-up over and over again, and
doesn't seem to want to learn how to do it. Winston on the other hand, could
be more proactive in determining what is a business related model issue and
an IT issue and ask for help from research.
I think you Debbie and I need to work quite hard to get them to play nicely.
I have asked Tanya and Winston to go ahead and work very closely together
over the next few days....and Debbie Brackett and I will review their
progress on Friday.
In the meantime l'll be looking at setting up a working test environment that
doesn't involve my main Quant guys in day to to day setup issues as a longer
term solution.
Regards
Steve

Sheila,
I am forwarding you a message I received a few days ago. I want to ask you
for advice how to handle this case.
My first reaction was to ignore it. The longer I think about it, the more
convinced I become that some action
is required.
Let's try to reverse the situation and assume for the sake of argument that a
female employee
was harassed by a male colleague. An employee informs her boss a few months
later about
the alleged incident and the boss chooses to ignore it. In many similar
cases, courts subsequently
found against the companies that decided to turn a blind eye to such
complaints.
The fact that we are dealing with the case of reverse harassment is
immaterial.
If I ignore this complaint I may expose the company to charges of double
standard in
handling sexual harassment cases.
My recommendation would be to ask Maureen to attend sensitivity training and
sexual harassment prevention class.
Please, let me know what you think. Sorry to burden you with this case.

Vince-
I got your message (I was up on the roof of the building helping to fix the
weather satellite dish- what a gorgeous view of Houston!).
I appreciate your words. Everything remains fine, Vince. You are my "father"
here at Enron, and I admire and respect you greatly. I think I know the kind
of person you are, in terms of your integrity, and I admire the high
standards you set for all of us in your extended "Group."
I want to let you know I am not the only one in the group who doesn't
appreciate the way Maureen disrespects you. You remain the key external
factor in their success- it is not simply their own abilities that matter to
their futures but your own- Vince's- success with upper management that
matters.
We respect you, and we don't like it when you are disrespected. Maureen
didn't disrespect me today, Vince, she disrespected you.
It's time I told you something. Last April, Maureen, highly intoxicated
following a work-related function at Ninfa's, made an unsolicited predatory
sexual advance on me at my desk on the 19th floor. I was shocked and
disgusted, but I didn't say one word about this, Vince, because I played it
out and didn't want to put you into the position of having a raving Maureen
in your midst as you perhaps had to fire her and then endure a litany of
gender-bias crap lawsuits.
I "took one for the team," Vince. I can'rt say I would do it again- Maureen
is brazen to berate me after what she did, in public no less.
I appreciate your bringing me into Enron. I've found a respectful and,
indeed, a loving work environment. I remain willing to do whatever I can to
help the Group.
Clayton

Subject:
Mr. Jeffrey K. Skilling
President and C.O.O.,
Enron Corp.
Dear Jeff,
This email is from Robert Jarrow (Cornell) and myself (Joe Cherian). I hope
you recall meeting/lunching with Bob Jarrow & me when you keynoted at my
1999 Math Finance Day conference here at Boston University. I wanted to
introduce you to SKG Inc., a startup that is focused on providing an
innovative service to the electronic trading community. Messers Kuppuswamy
Seshadhri, Sriketan Mahanti, and Gaurav Mallik are the principal founders
of SKG, Inc. Bob Jarrow and I represent the company's Scientific Advisory
Board. Nobel laureate Robert Merton, who also sat on our table during your
keynote address, very kindly serves as an ad hoc Senior Advisor to SKG and
has been an invaluable resource to SKG, including putting us in touch with
JP Morgan. Coincidentally, the C.O.O. of JP Morgan Capital Corp. Ed
Colloton, in an April 7 meeting told us he would introduce us to the C.F.O.
of Enron Online, whom he knows and at which he felt SKG would have huge
value-adding opportunities. However, given Ed's busy travel schedule, I
don't believe he has been able to do that yet. Hence this joint decision by
Bob Jarrow and myself to send you this email.
SKG's solution is to provide dynamic pricing and value maximization in
electronic trading of securities/commodities on ECNs and ATSs (Alternative
Trading Systems). It achieves this through a process of "strategic
negotiation" using automated agents (intelligent software manifestations).
Our system should not be viewed as an ECN, but rather as an enhancement to
any extant trading system, be it an ECN, ATS, CLOB, NASDAQ, etc. Our
initial system design has been conducted for financial instruments trading,
e.g. bonds/equities, but our strategy is as much applicable to energy/power
instruments trading, high speed communications bandwidth trading, and other
web-based commodities trading, which we believe is of interest to Enron
Online.
SKG is superior to existing solutions in the following way:
1) It considers multiple attributes, e.g., price, time, volatility,
bandwidth. (In high speed communication bandwidth scenarios, for example,
the dimensions could be price, bandwidth size, time for which bandwidth
available, continguity of the allocation, and such.)
2) It involves dynamic matching as opposed to "static" matching.
3) It is multi-lateral.
4) It adapts itself dynamically to changing market conditions.
5) It allows traders to make important trade-offs, as they do in
traditional markets.
Currently, SKG is involved in discussions with the Heads of Trading at
Fidelity, Putnam Investments, Lehman Bros., KPMG, Meridien Research,
Salomon Smith Barney, JP Morgan, State Street, Banc of America, McKinsey,
Citizens Power, and a host of other folks.
We think we have a value-adding service to provide to Enron Online or any
other Enron subsidiary that the SKG offering matches and that you deem fit.
SKG's founders and I will be very happy to provide you or your
representative(s) with more details, including a demo of the prototype, in
a meeting. We are therefore hopeful that you will be able to arrange
something appropriate.
Thanks very much, Jeff! We look forward to hearing from you.
With warm regards,
Joseph Cherian and Robert Jarrow

Dave Delaney called an hour ago. He needed a statistic from EOL that the EOL
