Isn't it obvious?

We're spending $280,000 for Texas Tech to study "how communities bounce back after hurricanes." Well, let's see -- they call the insurance companies, they clear debris from the thoroughfares, they clean up demolished homes and businesses, they call the utility companies to restore power, they dry out the flood damage, and they build new homes, businesses, and infrastructure to replace the destroyed ones. See, if they'd asked Essie to begin with, she could have saved you $280,000!
