Interestingly, the chairman of Enron’s finance committee board is Herbert “Pug” Winokur, the former Chairman of the Board of DynCorp. Tied to Winokur through Harvard University’s endowment board is Dudley Mecum who currently sits on the board at DynCorp. Mecum, an Enron director is also a director of Citicorp. Through Citicorp Mecum is tied to former Clinton Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin. When Enron executives started dumping stock, and the warning signs that Enron was in deep trouble were everyone except on the evening news, Winokur and Rubin called Peter Fisher, the current undersecretary of the Treasury to determine the practicality of artificially supporting Enron’s credit rating in order to enable Enron to borrow enough money to stave off bankruptcy.

Standard & Poor's downgraded Dynegy's senior debt to "junk" on Monday.

Isn't Pug Winokur in charge of Harvard's investments? I wonder if he's the one who steered Harvard's money to bin Laden family-owned bio firm Hybridon.
