*grates teeth* Nng! Hormones = steroids anyway (well, for the most part)! (I just had an evil workshop about cholesterol and steroids, so don't get me started... Squalene! urk...)! (Sorry, I think the chemist in me simply doesn't like that...)

Basically, we already know that ordinary sligs can be "promoted" to Bigbros.

I'd give up on this one, and concentrate on Sligs' Origins, which I think you gave up on too soon, in my opinion...

I know, hence why I didn't chase it much. I just ignored it, and carried on my merry little way, bulldozering what I didn't like out of the way as usual...
(*points at her site, anyway* I didn't give up, I just went quiet. So narf)

*shrugs* Bones ossify (read - calcify and get hard) once a creature is adult. Osteoblasts and osteoclasts take aaaaaaaages to reshape a bone, and then I very much doubt that they'd reform to that extent (and we're not even considering internal organs, here...)
