Kym it would be helpful to define the question further. IE, world wide?
in what country? in what area of the country? ethnic group or? I am not
sure my statistics would apply to you. Where I am the initiation rate is
close to 90%, higher in some ethnic groups.

Just a request, as this list grows internationally it is increasingly
important that some identification is given of the location of
participants. Please do not assume we can quess from the e-mail
addresses.
