Evacuees Prepare To Return As Gustav Passes

Gustav is no longer a hurricane, but that doesn't mean all is well yet for residents of the Gulf Coast. Millions are still far from home in shelters across the region. One such shelter is a gymnasium in Shreveport, La., that has become home to about 800 people.

Renee Montagne talks to Kate Archer Kent from Red River Radio at the nearby Shreveport campus of Louisiana State University.
