Gary,

You've got it wrong. The policy doesn't pay if the damage is a direct result
of war, nuclear or otherwise. It also won't pay if the damage is the result
of a nuclear hazard. But, if the nuclear hazard causes a fire, and the fire
is the direct cuase of the damage or loss, the policy pays.

Comforting, isn't it <g>.

BTW, the Passport warranty doesn't cover fire.
