(urth) Pirate Freedom revisited

[Jerry Friedman]

Very interesting.

For Chris's parents to be himself and Novia is genetically drastically unlikely.  Even if you make Novia Chris's daughter (!), the odds are worse than 1 in 70 trillion that the baby would get the right set of chromosomes.  I'd prefer for Chris to be a clone of himself, which would be amusing.  (It's been suggested that he's a clone, since he calls himself a "half-human monster" and never mentions his mother.)  That would leave the problem of when he was engineered to be tall.

A difficulty with all of these, maybe not insurmountable--can you get mobbed up if you don't have a family?
