Neither, of course.  But, you wouldn't understand what actually should be
going on in the mind of the superior starter.  By all means, he should be
anticipating that a gun is about to be fired.  He should be preparing every
fiber in his body to react to that audible stimulus.  And, knowing that
it's
coming within a matter of seconds, he should be prepared to execute both
the
mental and physical reactions that will get him underway.  But, no, he
shouldn't GUESS when it's going to be fired, because a) that's cheating,
and
b) when he gets thrown out of the race because he's a blatant cheat, you're
going to say, "maybe a camera clicked."  You can't have it both ways.



Sir,
      You are absolutely right, I don't have a CLUE what goes on in the mind
of a superior starter, or a world class athlete to boot.  Thank you for
showing me my error.  LOL!

THE PRINCE
