If all board members of Enron had kept quiet while the auditors and managers ran the business with far too much risk and as a way to line their own pockets with shareholder wealth, then Enron would be where it is today... bankrupt as that is just what happened. Like it or not, Walter did his job. The pay packages rumored to have been discussed for CF & MC to lead the merged company made me ill. I was also made ill when I read they promised major bonuses to the top employees if they stayed at the merged companies a year after the deal. The market for talent is so soft now that this was more a bribe to get them to back the deal with the other employees than a true retention bonus. Sad thing is the bonus was about equal to a good years earnings (trying to remember from the article I read on it.. I could have the numbers wrong). Since the split, I must admit I have been selling HWP ahead of my plan and buying Agilent, the REAL HP.... YTD cbs.marketwatch.com 1 YR cbs.marketwatch.com Kirk
