Ok, a couple thoughts on my part...

First off, it depends on how old a spike baby he was... I remember reading
somewhere that in the late twentieth century (i.e. now) there were a lot of
spike babies born, compared to the norm, due to the slow rise in magic. It
wasn't full blown yet, but possibly some of the Meta genes are more
sensitive, which explains the spike babies. And trust me on this one, I
know of mopre than a few 50-60 year old men with very few skills, and what
they have are nothing to brag about. Maybe he's just a slow learner, or
he's had other things to do.

As for Laverty, well, he gathered up the ones he could find...:)
