Hummm...Jewish guy named Cohen marries a shicksa named McGuire...kids are named Cohen but they aren't considered Jewish any more by "observant" Jews. Do that a few more times and even Brother Adolph would let them pass by. Schwartz...isn't that German for black? Does GUEST think everyone named Black, in any language, is Jewish?

BTW, Utah Phillips was once Bruce Phillips, and he was even "U. Utah Phillips, the Golden Voice of the Golden West" at one point. At least he HAS a name!
