Many women have inspired James Bond. Typically, more than one per story.

Now, this is a signature gun, and that is an optical palm reader.

Actually it was a bird audubon society expert by the name of James Bond in which Ian Fleming got the character's name.

I'll let you know when I come-up with a new signature, .

Considering how sexist his Bond books are, I really don't think so.

You're right it WASN'T. IT was a bird expert by the name of James Bond.

Yeah, but the article is about the inspiration for the character, not the character's name.
Try actually reading the article first, before repeatedly posting about the ornithologist (which everyone on this board probably knows about already).
