Hurricane Opportunities
Hurricane Katrina and hurricane Rita present a major set of issues and opportunities for low income rural communities all over North America. For those directly in the hurricane path, the danger, the damage and the recovery are as much challenges to pride, self esteem, personal identity and community order as they are to buildings, land and infra-structure. For the rest of us, there are responsibilities and opportunities to help the stricken communities and to learn from the disasters.

Noah's Vineyard
Nearly every culture and ntion hs a flood story, including now the Untied Distates with the recent sinking of not Atlantis or Antlantic Sin City, but New Orleans. Of course, we all know the Prohpets of Doom foretold it long ago with the irresponsible jumping and floooding of Mississippi and the unpredictable whiplash of hurricanes, but even so we should consider whether the truly disadvantaged are really far better off without their cargo and animals. In comparison, Noah had a much easier time of it as he landed on high ground with several companionable animals including his lovable and esteemable St Bernard with a handy barrel of fine Benedictine. However, that's not what the highbrows think... or say.

Rebuilding Biloxi with Local Wisdom and Universal Design
Both Hurricane Katrina and a deluge of outside expertise test the character of residents in communities in the US Gulf Coast.
