He thanked us for all our cooperation but politely declined to give me any information on what authority he was relying on to conclude that there is a jurisdictional problem. However, it sounded to me like whatever authority he does have is shaky at best. He also sounded interested in the possibility of our making some sort of anonymous inquiry at FERC (if such a thing is possible) on the issue. Obviously they are very leery of making that phone call themselves and risking revealing their identity. He said he would discuss it with Ed Meaders. Also, he mentioned that after tomorrow he will be on vacation for a month, and another attorney will be taking over in his absence. That could be good, or it could be bad. Maybe Lorraine can sweet talk Meaders into at least citing us some cases from Hertzberg's memo. At the very least, I hope he will show it to the Kinder Morgan lawyers.
