It seems ironic that the hearing is the very day that a supposedly catastrophic show and ice storm is headed up the east coast. The hearing was titled:  Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs hearing titled “Extreme Weather Events: The Costs of Not Being Prepared

• Here is the testimony from 2 top DHS officials at the hearing completed this am. Talk about not addressing the topic!! I wonder if the Senators noticed and questioned them…..

• Here is the GAO report that a staffer mentioned in his testimony.
• The most original and interesting comments were those from the executive at Zurich Re and the public official from the State of DE, in my opinion
