outside his home in Montegut, Louisiana, October 4, 2002. A break in
nearby levies flooded the community with water from Hurricane Lili's
passing. Louisiana residents pulled out their chainsaws and mops Friday
to clean up the mess left by Hurricane Lili after the storm struck the
state a painful but not deadly blow. REUTERS/Joe Skipper
