[Babase] Possible Babase mistake (Biograph table)

Hi Lacey and Tabby,

I noticed that there are (at least) 2 pids in Biograph who have a null 
sname but not a null name (there name is simply blank).  Both appear to 
be abortions (birth date = death date and sex unknown).  I'm guessing 
there name should be null and not blank?  That seems consistent with 
other records, but I could certainly missing something obvious.

Anyway, the 2 pids that came up in my query are DIC1 and WIR3.  I 
haven't searched for others.

Catherine
