I've always rejected the idea that Clark would have a significantly longer lifespan than a human -- after all, Dr. Klein was wrong about other things, including Clark's fertility, so there is no reason to think that this particular theory of his must be true -- but this is a well-written and haunting portrayal of such a future.
Poor Clark. This was his nightmare scenario in "Brutal Youth" and here it has played out to its extreme.
