I must admit that I'm not sure that we actually got an answer there. I will highlight that they did some work and that like many federal organizations, they had some capacity issues. As anyone can, you start to prioritize the issue at hand versus doing that preparedness, and to my mind that really underscores the importance of us as a country putting some value on being better prepared. We all too often forget the importance of being prepared, and this example just highlights the need to do better going forward.
