I dunno about that. Maybe you just have a talent for trivial detail (I speaks
as one following the "It takes one to know one" law).

'Cept for one thing. Jerry Mahoney was Paul Winchell's dummy (the other being
Knucklehead Smith, of course). I believe you mean Mortimer Snerd. Bergen had
some others, as well, I recall, but those (Charlie McCarthy and Snerd) were the
two main ones he used.

Now, I'm a mere infant of 36, which, as we all know, is really old, but Bergen
in his prime is before my time.

Geez, the things people will fill their brains with!!! You people are nuts!  ;
