I’m here to answer questions on the state & federal response & what we can do prevent future disasters. Fire away! #LISSandy
@SenBlumenthal change your definition of "disaster".
@SenBlumenthal Tree trimming seemed to help reduce power outages. Did it actually help? Other preventative steps can we expect? #lissandy
@SenBlumenthal are there any future plans for reducing outages by overhauling the power line system, potentially below ground lines?
@SenBlumenthal I'm skeptical that much can be done to "prevent" future disasters, a la levees in N'awlins. Focus should be on response, no?

@SenBlumenthal continue to bury the power lines.
@Pnaplehead In addition to trimming, fewer leaves on branches in this storm as well as less rain which helped with outage issue. #lissandy
@Pnaplehead Tree trimming may have been effective in some areas but is no panacea...#LISSandy
