Was wondering if it's possible to create a script that will go through all contacts and strip the name prefix (Mrs, Mr, Ms, etc) off of them. I have a client with this need and am hoping to create something in a minimal amount of time to "correct" his address book.

tell application "Address Book" repeat with thisPerson in (people whose title is not missing value) set the title of thisPerson to "" as Unicode text end repeat save addressbook end tell
