FWIW, on the politics board ohleary said:
"This is hogwash. Not the part about the drop in performance, but it was in no way tied to data ingest. And it wasn't technically labeled a "dropout" as purported here. Maybe she was interviewed that short time period when it was assumed to be tied to data ingest."
Don't ask why this was being discussed on the politics board. We are kind of insane.
