But seventeen year olds in more sophisticated parts of the country are more likely to be aware of these areas of study that potentially pay more and are just better?  Like all the seventeen year olds in urban enclaves like Marin County?  Just like everywhere else in the country, the personal qualities that give rise to curiosity and inquiry are actually quite rare in Marin.  And I can assure you that there is no shortage of pushy ambitious parents in the Midwest.
