Commentary: Muscle Memory

By Andrew Lam
Published April 4, 2004 at 11:00 PM CDT

As a child, commentator Andrew Lam fled Vietnam with his family. He returned for a visit a year ago -- and found that at least one thing felt unchanged, even after almost 30 years. Andrew Lam lives in San Francisco. The documentary, My Journey Home, airs on PBS stations April 7.
