I found it interesting about how Brendan Meade said there were no robust computational tools to study earthquakes. Those would be the greatest gains in the field coming from better algorithms and super computers. Right now, the default physical models are so simplified and don't do a good projection of the consequences of a disaster. Other natural disasters seem to be modeled relatively well, like hurricanes and other tropical storms but looks like we haven't figured it out for earthquakes.
