Subject: RE: BS: enough with the 'Czar' label
They never spell it Tsar do they? And when the person in question is a woman they never say Czarina (or Tsarina).

Funny how "Drug Czar" sounds so different from "Drug Baron"...

I wonder, have they imported this rather daft American terminology into Russia these days?
