In Mirror Dance, the gang encounters a growth-accelerated clone who's been surgically altered to have large, exaggerated breasts and hips. Mark (or maybe it was Miles? I think Mark) reasons that the clone must be a sex-change case. Can you explain why he came to that conclusion? I don't understand the connection.

Speculation on Mark's part, but presumably he must have seen a few cases like that, plus variations, before when he was growing up in the clone creche.

The news today is that Philip Roth has died. In the NPR story about him, there's a reference to an interview in 2013: https://www.npr.org/2013/03/23/174949848/at-80-philip-roth-reflects-on-life-literature-and-the-beauty-of-naps . Where are you on the spectrum of retirement? Obviously, not fully retired yet, but I suspect you might be slowing down?
