It's very big money. Some of the disasters that we've already experienced and that you're aware of, such as the ice storm, may or may not relate to global warming, but it's apparent that we're going to have more of them. We are experiencing more of them, and the costs are simply incalculable. They're absolutely enormous. An ice storm of the sort we had a few years ago, were it to recur, would cost multiple billions of dollars.
