He fortunately moved from West End (right where the 17th Street Canal breached its levee) several years ago. They moved into an apartment right on the OTHER side of the lake levee at West End. As a result, they didn't get water damage (the city filled up with water, and it was held in by the levees protecting us from the lake). His problem is that everything leading up to his apartment complex is totally destroyed, so ENTERGY is not spending any time restoring electricity in that area. He is a very humble South Korean pastor who doesn't complain about anything. He has one more year to reach 65, after which he will move and take it easy. It is remarkable that he is staying where he is to serve his church (we are squatting in a Metairie John Calvin Presbyterian Church Sunday mornings). He's cheerful and upbeat despite his situation. He wouldn't have been offended by your levity. :-) Jeffery Smith New Orleans, LA http://www.400tx.com -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+jsmith342=cox.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+jsmith342=cox.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Kenneth Frazier Sent: Saturday, January 21, 2006 8:19 PM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Divided D-76, and the lower 9th ward On Jan 21, 2006, at 9:11 PM, Jeffery Smith wrote: > .
