COV shutdown will tell us a lot about CO2

Yeah. But big government. Cut those agencies. It’s been 10 years since the last disaster. It won’t happen again.

I said smart, not Federal.
But you're right I'm sure all the agencies go through that post mortem of events, but then politicians come along and kill or at least castrate the agencies.

There's an imperative here that professionally-run agencies observe with some faith -- apart from permanently seeking a larger slice of budget pie on the chart, there is the imperative to get the most bang out of every budget dollar they actually get.

Absolute, law-of-gravity adherence to these isn't going to happen, but the nearer they approach either or both, the better run the agency.
