In some latin countries the people involved in gender studies are using the character "@" to mean "a/o".

Example: "Tod@s nosotr@s" (instead of "todos nosotros" -"All of us"-).

They try to give a male and female approach to the spanish generic words.
That's pretty horrible. Why don't they just use the letter schwa? :-)
