Zeev's Turnips Patch-No Politics (ZEEV)

[Zeev Hed]

Two years ago, we (Invent Resources , Inc.)approached the Insurance institute, proposing to them a system that will protect individual houses for a period of 4 hours during such fires. We wanted them to fud the development ( a puny $350,000). Their response was shocking. They are not in the business of preventing fire losses or other reason for insurance. If they did, insurance would not be needed and their business would go down....

A $2 B loss once or twice per decade surely justifies the billions and billions in insurance fees they get every year. Now, they said, if we could do something about hurricanes....then they would be interested. Liquid nitrogen "cannisters" are not going to create enough of a blanket to prevent sreading of the fire, and it surely will not cool much of an area...
