something to "is" something in the novel. What are the criteria for
^determining^ what something 'is?' And what does 'is' mean. (Smoke'em if
you've dipped 'em.) The passage in question offers several options for
looking at the terms 'Kenosha' and 'Kid,' thus I'd be interested how one
could come up with criteria for discussing what is the kid and what is
not which are not undermined by the passage itself.

so far i havent read anything that adequately describes how orson welles is
the kenosha kid. how do i determine this? i look at the connections...they
are weak.thus i dont think orson is necessarily the kid. i was born in san
diego...my parents had a friend named jack...does this mean that the sitcom
"threes company" was loosely based on my life or his? no.
