OTOH I doubt you'd have to look too hard to find a group of teenage boys willing to go through every single page 3 and identify those that were described as being 16 or 17. You probably wouldn't even have to pay them :-)

Reminds me of a joke. A young couple are about to go trekking through some woods but first have to listen to a talk from the ranger on the danger of bears. The ranger gives them each a little bell and some pepper spray and says "bears
