Hi all

Please see the attached letter from Rick Anthes which is in response to 
a letter from John McCain about the current Senate Bill on climate 
change.  I had a strong hand in the content.
Kevin

All,
Attached is the final version of the letter that we faxed to McCain
today.  I know some of you wanted a chance to make comments but there
just was not enough time left.  I received McCain's request when I came
to work early yesterday (the 29th) morning.  His letter asked for a
response by today, in time for him and Lieberman to introduce an
amendment to the Energy bill.  With a huge amount of help from Kevin, I
put together this response yesterday morning--it took about 6 hours of
going back and forth.  Then Cindy assembled the raw material into a good
first draft letter yesterday afternoon.  

Rick
