Just double, if you would, just double the amount we are spending for the clean drinking water programs at the Federal level from about $1 billion to, let's say, $2 billion, or maybe even $3 billion, by squeezing some of the expenditures that we find in other accounts. My particular target is the nuclear weapons account, which will in the next 25 years cost the American taxpayers $1 trillion. So when you go to the hearing, keep that in mind.
