100% agree on the first part. I am in construction and understand delays. I should have been clearer, I did absolutely mean in the face of the uphill and adverse circumstances, so thank you for the thorough general answer. It is incredibly sad to see it happen.

Absolutely. And to be clear, it is a little anecdotal on my end -- I live in SW Missouri and that kind of timeline for storm recovery is just something that you grow a little used to. I remember there was a huge community response to Joplin really early in the beginning stages that I think also helped out by freeing up resources, along with quite a few non-profits building houses as well.
