...overwhelms what remains of the land. "As far as shrimping goes," DeJean continues, "there's going to be more shrimp. But you'll have a lot of garbage to deal with. You'll have trees, like in the nets." His 12-hour shifts will be reduced to six or eight mainly "because you spend so much time getting trees out the nets." Given the shortage of fuel, when does he expect to return to work? "You're talking a couple weeks without power, before we can do anything.

Lieberman told delegates to the Republican convention here that "this is no ordinary election," and his speech, capping the first night of the hurricane-delayed proceedings, was Exhibit A.
