The problem was, if I recall, that the children were thrown back in to a system that didn't support their early gains.

That's precisely right. But I would like to take a look at the study itself, if Tim has the reference. I'm curious about the design.

"collective intelligence has been stymied wrt more productive avenues of intellectual exercise."

Is it intelligence or learning? I think there huge street smarts in some very uneducated people. To me it is lack of education that is the problem. Without education there is little financial hope.
