At least the first part of the Life section is ripped straight from the biography on the Museum of American Poetics link. Max 097 00:23, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

So, as written we're to assume that Corso's story about his incarceration was made-up later: the tale goes that he pulled off a successful robbery using surplus radio's to coordinate with his confederates, one of whom ratted on him, and he's picked up down in Florida strutting around in a zoot suit. I can easily believe that this was made-up, but if so we should probably say so: "Some accounts have it that ..., but this romanticized version of the story doesn't match the facts, as indicated in ...". But we really need some citations on all of this. -- Doom (talk) 22:17, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

It says Corso's mother left him in 1935, a month after he was born... but he was born in 1930. Hierarchitectitiptitoploftical (talk) 02:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
