Mr. BRYAN. A further question of the Senator, if the Senator will yield.
Mr. REID. I will be happy to yield for a question from my friend.
Mr. BRYAN. I think the Senator's point was that the population numbers that I read of part of those cities represents the corporate city limits, and I believe the Senator's point, if I understood him correctly, is that each of these communities are part of a metropolitan area. As the Senator pointed out, in our hometown of Las Vegas, there are roughly a million people in the metropolitan area who would be directly and adversely impacted by a rail or highway accident. Yet, Las Vegas is listed for purposes of population as 258,000. I believe, if I understood the Senator's point, in addition to the population indicated here, there are suburban communities that would be populated as well, perhaps even greater.
