I think we really should stick with the goal of 10,000 PCVs in the field. I also worry how well the Peace Corps will be accepted if we go to war with Iraq on the basis of speculative projections of what kinds of weapons they might have and what they might do with them. Iraq knows if they use weapons of mass destruction, they will ge nuked by at least one nuclear power. This is not a good ambient for the expansion of the Peace Corps.
