Not so fast you fried PB&J eating mofo, maybe the striking similarities stem
from the fact that they popped out of the same primordial goo sloshing
around in Jerome's pond. Something old, something new, something borrowed
and something blue and now I pronounce them husband and wife, you may kiss
my....post.

why the striking similarities then, between the caulfields/glasses. if he
was
going to create new characters under a new surname...

there was a reason for the surname change and i think it has nothing to do
with the story/spiritual avenues that were open for either the glasses or
caulfields. my assumption is that he thought seymour glass was more clever
sounding than kenneth, vincent, or even holden. i think cleverness was
salinger's wooden leg. and that's why i am compelled to read further than
biographies will go! because he's got some THING going on underneath it all
and whoever guesses it correctly will be drivin in a hummer limosine to his
door to read all the stories he's written since 1965 in privacy before all
else! yay! i have left the building!
