[edit] Birthdate?

IBDB.com says his birthdate is Sept 2, 1955 (http://www.ibdb.com/person.asp?ID=390927) whereas this article (and IMDB) say it's Feb 9...?

[edit] JM?

Bullock's name is spelled "JM" here, and was also spelled as such on his panel when he was on Hollywood Squares. Can someone please explain why he spells it this way? --ClintFord 13:48, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

At the time he began acting, there was already a Jim/James Bullock in the Screen Actors Guild which did not allow names to be duplicated (I believe that has since been changed). If you go to IMDB and type in "Jim Bullock" you will find the man who had the name registered first--he was actually a sound editor for most of his 30-year career and only acted very briefly in the 1980s. He passed away in 2000 so I'd guess that JM could now be credited as such if he wanted. A Runyon 00:20, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

He's still alive and voicing a show called "Queer duck"NicholasPrakash 05:54, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear in my note above--I didn't mean to imply that JM is dead. I was referring to the sound editor with the same name (James/Jim Bullock)--he is the one who passed away and I meant that because he was now deceased that JM could probably use his given name professionally if he wanted.
