===========================================

Hmmmm, perhaps I should alter my figures a bit.
Ok, say,

Dixie:	100 million  (we Southerners are a prolific lot)
Kentucky:  25 million
Alabama:  30 million
Outposts:  20 million (total of about 60 different sites, scattered all 
over.  These tend to be in nice quiet out of the way places)

That still allows the NCS military at about 2 million (slightly over 1 
percent of total population, big military tradition here)

How's that?

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world 
without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, 
because they'd never expect it.
