Dear Mr Kaminski, 
 
I am responsible for the programme of this year's  PoweRisk conference in Paris. Helyette Geman has informed me that she has  contacted you concerning the workshop and that you are happy to do it with her  again this year - brilliant!
 
I would like to know if you are also interested in  delivering a paper again. The audience in previous years greatly appreciated  your contribution, and I would me more than happy if you could join us again.

Please let me know if you are interested  in joining the PoweRisk 2001 speaker panel, and which topic you would like to  cover. I think that something along the lines of last year's talk (State-of-the-Art Volatility And Correlation Estimation  Techniques For Multiple Energy Portfolios)  would be brilliant again, but please  feel free to chose something else that has not been covered  yet.
 
I look forward to hearing  from you,
