Maintenance is at least getting a mention with respect to recent
climate-related disasters; I wish it had been more.   I would be interested
to see a comparison of "actual results" vs "predicted results if current
systems were in working order" vs "predicted with new mitigation
strategies" - does anyone know of any studies/reports like that?
