You need to read back Skippy, you were the one that lacked the knowledge that it was Zsa Zsa//Gabor

...we have a default position of First/Middle/Last and several times I said that without documentation that was the starting point.

No we don't - you may have have, but parsing is nowhere in the rules. There is no default position at all. 

As for the rest, it was just your usual arrogant drivel which I'll ignore.

Lopek:

Why did you bring YOUR brand of drivel here AFTER the discussion had already concluded. Answer just to be insulting. so shut up already.

Because I wanted to voice my opinion on the subject, it was an open thread, and so it was my right to do so. You are not the forum police, you can't decide when discussions are over or when people should shut up - except of course yourself! Hint Hint 

Shut up Lopek, it's over already.

That's easy credits are just that credits, the only legal backing toi them is the contract that says how she will be credited for THAT film. The mugshot, I PRESUME, I suppose it could be wrong but I give the police the benefit of the doubt for getting it right, represents probably as close as we could get to a legal document which might shed light on this topic. As I believe I pointed at during the HBC caper, thge actress mayt well have made legal changes to her name that we were not aware of. I believe I also suggetsed that IF we could find a series of credits H/B-C, H/B/C and then H/B-C again that would provide a prima facie case for parsing her name. As I have said before, I start from square one and buildout from there and I do not make assumptions, or try to bend data to meet a pre-conceived opinion. If we do that, we are constructing a house of sand that will not withstand the storm of scrutiny. I am trying very hard to lay a solid foundation, you can help or not, you can choose as some do to be insulting and make derogatory or not, all of that is your choice. But it will not sway me from continuing to try to build a solid foundation for this database.

I'm not trying to be insulting or derogatory. I'm just flabbergasted that a mugshot has any validity on this discussion at all. 

For mugshots, you assume the cop got it right.

For film credits, you assume the actor is changing their legal name back and forth.

I don't know what to say.

James, your mistake is that you are trying to apply logic to the illogical! 

The master of logic speaks, all bow.
