it's admitted a gloss but i don't think i'm reading anything into the text here suppose i wrote my friend lenny and his fellow countrymen bruce and squiggy are thirsty i am therefore launching an operation called a soda pop for lenny and his brothers and then later wrote elsewhere this operation has been launched to make some people non thirsty even though someone with only the second note might be mystified as to exactly who those some people might be i don't think given both writings there would be any doubt as to exactly who those some people are lenny bruce and squiggy although it isn't explicit talk
