Chuck, can you clarify this a bit for me?  Does this mean
that from that point onward there's no difference between
those who were HeadStarted and those who were not?  If so,
how can that be?  Up through 3rd to 4th they're ahead, but
suddenly the others catch up?  We don't lose any due to
frustration in their early years?  Something here doesn't
add up for me; I must be overlooking something?
