Hurricane season begins June 1 and Mother Nature is screaming.  First, the cyclone in Burma, fires in FL, tornados all over the place and now an earthquake in China, I feel nothing but dread.  Can we be protected?  Not entirely, but the Corp could at least try to accomplish what the Dutch have mastered.
