Hey, I was reading about how corrupt Italy is yesterday on my flight from London, it seems that Naples is buried under thousands of tons of trash for the last few months, every street piled high in stinking garbage, why, the MAFIA controls all garbage collection there, and they want money to make new landfills. How pathetic, one of Europe's great cities filled with trash by corrupt government. Ship to Italy at your own risk, as someone who has sold thousands of items on ebay last year, I know what I am talking about. Michael Farmer
