:*I have given my reasons here and on the article talk page. I stand by all that and wll point out again that the safe house/shop called "Hildebrand Prints and Rarities" in the film didn't look like a fish... I've gone back over the Fleming works and can't see any connection between Blofeld and Oberhauser either: Fleming makes absolutely no connection between the two - indeed he gives Blofeld a very, very different back story. Have fun trying to rationalise the differences between the two. I'm off to do other stuff, as you're clearly not listening to anything anyone else is saying on the talk page thread, where the consensus is very much against you. -
