I'm not a big fan of the star environments -- too many side effects, 
so much unexpected behavior.

If it were me, I'd make a new environment that simply does a clearpage 
and prints its text in giant print and then \\[1in] or whatever. You 
might need to finesse a few things to get page headers and footers 
correctly print, but it shouldn't be a big deal.
