How do we tell one thing from another? Is there any reality to it?

Is my skin truly separate from the air which permeates it?

This problem is greatest for living things, but even inert objects exchange particles.

Have you been smoking your counter clippings again?

Actually, I've clipped so many counters in the past two years, I'm probably up to a couple countersheets worth of cardboard dust in my lungs.

Individuation has been something I worried about for most of my life.

I studied a number of later scholastics (notably Suarez) on the subject.
Modern scientific knowledge only makes the problem more difficult.
