There is an interesting article in the Joplin Globe this morning about the information coming out of the inspections of the storm damage in Joplin and how we can builder better structures.  The question is will a public free to choose pay extra for these improvements?  I doubt the public will.  It is more likely the insurance industry will mandate changes just as has been done on the gulf coast raising both costs of construction and insurance forcing improvements.
