I'd imagine that the "man" in the word "Ombudsman" is gender-non-specific. If we have a female Ombudsman, calling her Ombudswoman would be ... wrong, wrong!

On the other hand, are you suggesting that Mr Ømbudsmån, the well-known Swedish representative for Lost Norse Sparrows, is married? That there is a Mrs Ømbudsmån? If so, I suspect Mrs Ømbudsmån would not be happy by knowing that Mr Ømbudsmån's attractive blonde assistant stayed in the same hotel as he, during the International Convention on Lost Feathered Things.

PP and Ebay - the buyer protection is really only relevant to Ebay and nothing else - they PP/EB) are relying on people getting confused to ensure more people use PP thinking that are safe

and once again - brain waves interupted
