3. Here's an interesting link about Mr. Schneller from Daily Kos back in March '08 when he passed.

The author says he was in his class too and has some very interesting stories on how Mr. Schneller helped to teach the history class by actually taking the class to different places near New York City:

At the end of the post gmoke says this - how true it is:

Keith Olbermann has talked about Mr Schneller before. In the fall, on his birthday, KO called Mr Schneller one of the best people in the world and the greatest high school history teacher ever. KO may very well be right. Thank you, Mr Olbermann, for honoring your mentors. Thank you again, Mr Schneller, for all you taught me and your other students, for the example you have set.Your work will help shape the world for many years to come.
