Given a 2500 mid point, and an 800 point spread (-800, +800), you will see
performances from 1800 to 3300.  If you look at TWIC over the course of a year
you will see this and it fits a bell curve with normal standard deviation (ok,
the very top and bottom TPR's are very rare, but 2100 to 2900 is not that rare).
