Using existing models for the evolution of clustering we show that the firstsources are likely to be highly biased and thus strongly clustered. We computeintensity fluctuations for clustered sources in a uniform IGM. The strongfluctuations imply the universe was reheated and reionized in a highlyinhomogeneous fashion.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, to appear in the proceedings of "After the Dark Ages: When Galaxies were Young (the Universe at 2
