I viewed you video and was moved. I lived and taught in New Orleans. I am now in Birmingham. I am still trying to adjust to the city. I know that it is hard for the students. They have an advantage that we, teachers, do not possess--time is on their side and they will have a longer time to help make dealing and living with disasters more acceptable. The young man in the video said it all. He will pursue his education and he can use the experience to help make that adjustment as a 'teaching tool of life'.
