Hello, I am James J. Bond. My coworker pointed this documentary film out to me, and I have to admit I was a little annoyed that nobody contacted me. I've suffered the affliction of having this name since my birth in the Roger Moore era. I found it interesting that several of the other fellows shared similar life-experiences: The anxiety of public roll calls, full name introductions, listening to the same awkward jokes from different people year-after-year and decade-after-decade. Also, having trouble with authority figures when they think you are messing with them upon asking your name. My name nearly led to my arrest on one occasion when I happened to look like the perpetrator. Although I will admit that there have been advantages that came with the package as well. As stated by a few others in the film, the name is a "blessing and a curse". By complete coincidence, I too, am an ornithologist and natural historian (albeit, amateur) like the gentlemen that originally loaned his name to Ian Fleming. If they ever decide to make a sequel, I believe I have some interesting stories to tell. This never happened to the other fellow.
