A casket lies on Highway 23 near Port Sulphur, La., unearthed by floodwaters. The town is 16 miles from where Katrina came ashore.

From Reuters late yesterday:

...The revised Louisiana total brought the overall confirmed death toll from Katrina to 648, including 218 deaths in Mississippi and 7 in Florida...

With more than 200 more confirmed deaths in Lousiana yesterday, it's creeping up toward at least 1000, but it's like there is an almost complete news blackout on the toll. Even those that are reporting tend to report disjointed info from just Louisiana or N.O. without adding the Mississippi total. Hard to find a complete count (hate to have to rely on Reuters, of all leftist wacko news services).
