Subject: Home Page Text: Rephrased First Paragraph

Louise - I ran this by Dave and Marcello and they agreed with the revised 
version subject to your approval. Let me know if you are happy with this or 
if you want to rephrase  it further.  I can then forward it on to legal and 
PR for a quick email approval.   (The colour highlights below are just to 
point out the changes for the purposes of this note).  Thanks.

 
ALTERNATIVE HOME PAGE TEXT - FIRST PARAGRAPH ONLY

Old First Paragraph:
Welcome to EnronOnline, the world,s first Web-
enabled system for wholesale buying and selling the 
full range of energy products and much more.

Comments:
1) The location of the word "wholesale"  makes this gramatically incorrect
2) "and much more" sounds rather clich,d.


Proposed First Paragraph:
Welcome to EnronOnline, the world,s first Web-
based system enabling companies to buy and sell
the full range of wholesale energy products online.


Advantages:
1) Gramatically correct
2) Explicitly reinforces that EnronOnline is for "companies" not individuals 
who happen to surf to the Home Page and might otherwise think they can 
buy/sell energy themselves
3) Extra word "online" at the end for emphasis and clarity.
