I like this, and the variations that have been suggested on

We repeatedly see an inhum[u|a] more-or-less successfully=20
create for [him|her]self a human identity, and masquerade=20
as a human who never existed before.

But can anyone cite a specific case where an inhum?=20
successfully masqueraded as a specific, already-existing
human person, in the presence of people who have known
that human person for years? (The case of Jahlee in the=20
farmhouse does _not_ work for this...)

Lacking that, is there any reason to believe that an
inhum? _could_ carry on such a deception, over a period
of years, among the people who knew the original best?
