And I would still doubt that 60% number in either case.

He had not given out that number, so who would be calling?

It might not be long before they reach that number.

This year that number is expected to rise to 3.3 million.

Six months later he reduced that number to 95 percent.

And but the fact that the number was so big shocked me.

But the children's agency said there were about double that number.

In recent months, the company has reduced that number by 600 employees.

If it hits that number, he is out no matter what.

In 1996, the latest year for which figures are available, that number was up more than 50 percent, to 1.5 million.
