No joke, I was thinking of not having a photo of myself, so people think I am a dude. Ono is an ambiguous name. Apparently J.K. Rowling used the abbreviation so being a woman would not hurt her chances.
Sad, but true, that in business people reply promtly and are very considerate, until they call me,looking for Mr. Ono Mergen and learn that I am not his assistant. The tone does change.
