Re: How many 5 year-olds.....
Let me also add that anybody who says it's in the single digits is either a huge pansy or way overestimating 5-year-olds. I can support this from my own experience that I just remembered. I earned a bit of a reputation in elementary school when I was in 4th grade and took out 8 6th graders during lunch recess. I don't remember the exact circumstances and surely it wasn't anything like a deathmatch, but I do remember one kid charging at me and I picked up another kid and threw him into the charging kid, taking out both. By "taking out," I of course don't mean that they were knocked out, but they weren't coming back for more. If I could defend against 8 6th graders, who are much more advanced than 5-year-olds (6th grade is what - 10-11 years old?), when I was myself a 4th grader and obviously quite a bit smaller and arguably less intelligent than I am now, I think the number here is most certainly well into double or triple digits.
