Why is Enron not facing liquidation, but Ch11 reorg instead?
The recent news that the SEC has approved the plan for a split and a name 
change to Cross-Country seems incredible. While it is true that the
Bankruptcy Court must still appprove, apparently that *is* likely.

Most likely because the liquidated value would not provide much to the
creditors... profits from continuing the operations of hard asset
holdings would provide more.  A great book to read about Enron is "The
Smartest Guys in the Room."  I highly recommend it.
