My wife is an international insurance expert, some ideas that came up over dinner last night:
1. Sony is a Japanese owned company. Sure, the U.S. might control their operations for the most part, but this was a devastating statement from a major company neighboring Korea.
2. Our government is at a critical point right now with insurance against terrorist attacks. Since 9/11, insurance companies have been chipping into a pool of insurance money in case of another terrorist attack. The standard operating procedure is now being blocked by one boneheaded Republican congressman from Oklahoma.

Because of this, companies and the government might be treading lightly.
