As an employee, I appreciat= e the security measures that Enron has implemented over the years; however,= I think the events of September 11th show that maybe we haven't gone far e= nough. Although we could do little about a suicide attack from the air, th= ere are many other types of attack we could prevent or minimize. The Houst= on Police Officers, around the buildings and on regular patrol, provide goo= d basic protection. However, in the event of a city-wide attack, the Polic= e would be unavailable and we would have to take some type of action ourse= lves. The Security firm contracted for the building lacks the training to = respond to life and death situations. I would recommend, and volunteer for= , a security team comprised of Enron employees with prior military or polic= e service. There may come a time, God forbid, when we just have a few mome= nts to act and the police may not be available. If we can't defend ourselv= es in the first few minutes of an act, it could be too late. I served in a= n anti-terrorist unit in the U.S. Army and have a few ideas that I think co= uld help. If this is in the realm of possibility, I would be happy to disc= uss this with whomever you designate. I do feel safe here at work but plan= ning for the worst, before it happens, seems very prudent in these times. = Thanks! Craig Buehler
