Assembled from 31 messages that mention Frontier Economics across eight Enron mailboxes, Jul 2000 – Aug 2001. Every line below was read out of correspondence, and every line opens the message it came from.

Economic consultancy to Enron's government affairs group, advising on Alberta Power Pool rules and arguing Enron's case on California prices, market power and RTO design before FERC and legislators.

What the brain knew on

Drag it, or use the arrow keys for one step at a time and Home and End for the ends. Durable facts accumulate; the ones that were only true for a while appear, then expire with a reason attached.

What we know

The consolidated view, as it stood on the selected date.

Contents

Sections in the order they mattered to the company. The counts follow the date you have selected.

Two kinds of fact

A brain that only keeps what is permanently true is a reference book, and it would have been no use to anyone at Enron in November 2001. A brain that keeps everything is the inbox again. The distinction that matters is not true versus false. It is durable versus current. A current fact carries what would end it. Sometimes the message gives a date and the page shows it; more often it gives only the condition, and the page says that instead of inventing a date the mail never stated.
