Uses Selenium Webdriver to pull cohort companies, timing info from SeedDB website
SeedDB is structured so that there is a page containing a list of accelerators. If you click on an accelerator name, you are then taken to another page of all their cohorts. This second page of all cohorts for each accelerator is stored in a folder called seedDBhtml.
