<p>This table below lists the possible unambiguous ways of identifying a person in a survex file or a logbook entry.
This ridiculously long list of alternatives is derived from what people have actually done in the last 40 years.
<p>Note that this is year specific: On a year with only one 'Sophie' then the identifier 'Sophie' will be fine.
On a year with more than one Sophie, an additional disambiguation is required, such as a surnbame or the first letter of the surname.
In the case of a year with two people called Ben, both of whose surnames begin with W (yes this has happened),
the entire surname is required.

<p>Don't blame me [programmer] for this, it's just what you all have collectively done over the decades by using this absurd variety of short-form
name formats when you have entered the cave data.
<p>The code that does this is in <var>troggle/parsers/people.py</var>.
