If the insurance company's lawsuit fails, the man who rented an Oconomowoc home that blew up in an April 2008 gas explosion says he will take on Dorner Inc. himself.

"Even if it's only $10,000 or $5,000, whatever, you know?" said Thomas Lemieux, who rented the house. "Just the simple fact of some satisfaction so I don't look back 20 years from now and say, 'They burned down my house and did nothing.'"
