Email to Tom Barnett - Katrina
Tom:
From recent postings on your blog, I realize you are just passing through some critical adjustments in your work life and that you have found in Steve a strong force requiring you to run fast to keep up with the new environment. So I hope you will have the patience to deal with the following comment triggered by the devastatiion of Hurricane Katrina.
To use your terminology, Katrina has just dealt our homeland a massive system perturbation - with far reaching consequences for America's Resiliency - and I find no serious mention in your blog yet of how you think we should balance our response to this shock to our homeland with your already well thought-out strategies for dealing with the GWOT and your prescriptions for shrinking the GAP that will be forthcoming in BFA and in America Resilient.
I believe that in order to retain the high ground position in the Resiliency game that has been emerging from your strategic messages in PNM and BFA you also need to be seen as giving priority effort to helping our country deal with something as shocking to our national system as this unfolding tragedy. The GAME has changed, and I think you have the mental bandwidth to make the adjustments necessary to incorporate dealing with this new system perturbation and its accompanying demand for new rules sets as you have shown in developing your strategic themes thus far. How will you and Enterra respond to this massive new shock to our system?
