I told Jim that I would convey his request to the appropriate personnel. If you or any one wanted to discuss this matter further with Jim he can be reached at 713-750-8206. I do know that Jim had met with Jeff Skilling earlier this year to talk about opportunities in E&Y working with Enron and I think he has another meeting scheduled in November with Rick Causey and others for a follow up presentation, all unrelated to the SEC inquiry.
