Here's another one from August:

"This isn't a time travel deal, it's not an alternate history story, it's not a
hoax, it's not a clone story, it's not, in short, a *cheat*.  I have too much
respect for the readers to do that."

Umm, time travel is a cheat, alternate history is a cheat, clones are a cheat,
but fast aging kids aren't?

brothers.  But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown." --Carl Sagan
