Amidst the political furor surrounding the recent U.S
government shutdown,
chances are most people didn't notice when the Energy Information Administration (EIA) became one
of many casualties, sending its staff home and ceasing all analysis and data releases.
Now, however, Cuomo and Christie are coming to Washington in a very inhospitable climate, with the federal
government again on the brink
of shutdown, and a decent
chance that even current obligations won't be met.
