FAS in a 1999 article projected about that for 2007, but didn't project the effect, if any, of Bush and Cheney on any reductions.

I must have mis-heard, maybe it said 7,000. However it happened I sure was off.

(However, the difference between 70,000 and 5,400 is, in effect, nil. I'm not sure they should bother counting anything over 500.)
