Mark - I do think we can get this done this year to our satisfaction.  It 
won't be the energy provisions that bring it down...it will be the single 
stock future issue.  

I think we should hold off on the Ken Lay call until we have a better sense 
of the movement of the bill in the House and the politics in the Senate.  We 
need to have a very clear and well-timed message delivered to Gramm from Ken.

As to you coming to Washington, it would be most beneficial.  But, as I have 
said above, let's decide after Congress returns when it would be most 
valuable (and you are available).

In the next few weeks,  I will spend time with the Rules Committee and the 
House leadership to more clearly know how the House plans to proceed.  This 
will be crucial to our Senate strategy.

Thanks - Chris

Do you think that a bill favorable to energy will be passed over the strong 
opposition of the CFTC?  What kind of odds do you put on it?  It is a 
significant change if Treasury is not longer against us -- but it is a little 
hard for me to believe that it is real.  Should I try to make a trip to 
Washington in September?  Let me know.
