Sorry, not so. They might have been buried under 30-page philosophical =
rants, but they were there. First, there were the stories and flashbacks =
of Dagny, John, Francisco, and Jim as children. Then, there were brief =
introductions to Kay's children in Galt's Gulch. There were also =
appearances of others throughout the story, at various ages. The "wet =
nurse" in Hank's factory was fresh out of school, for instance - no =
specific age given, but I'm guessing 21-22 or so. There were also the =
younger children in the old factory town out West, and in a few other =
spots.

The story didn't FOCUS on children, but that's no surprise given its =
topic.

I've read it, oh, thirty or more times, so if you'd like any questions =
answered let me know. I suggest we take this offline though! =3D)

Chad
