 Hello.  I am a middle school history teacher in Houston.  I am the sponsor of our history fair program.  I have one student who is researching the actions and legacies of Isaac Cline in the Galveston Hurricane of 1900.  He viewed many videos and has seen interviews that were conducted with you.  Would you be avaliable for him to interview.  He is competing at the state level in May and is working very hard to try to make it to the national level.  It could be done in person, over the phone, or by email.  Thank you so much for your time.
