Gald you liked the post and it has provoked a response.

I’ll think about deleting the comment before yours, but I think it gives a flavor of how people think, and this may open eyes.

The Amanda Knox case is opening eyes as to how things work in Italy.

I’ll take a look at Comedia all’Italiana, thanks for the pointer.

Best,

Alex

PS Thanks for the Twitter chat on the Knox case too – very interesting.

Let me start by congratulating you for a great post. Great writers strike nerves and that leads to responses. Next thing is delete the post prior to mine. That is a whacko and does not add to the discusiion. Delete, delete, delete. The other thing is that I think the comment that Italians don't see their public servants or state as helping them is coRrect and probably based in reality. I never believed this but with my current one pony show the Amanda Knox case have changed my mind. Also look at Commedia all'Italiana where the protagonists run when they see the copps; or get in trouble for stealing a carrot and it turns into a disaster Ok now I have read all the comments.

I also only recently learned how to swear, how funny. I did learn the names of some body parts early on though, and not all of them above the waist... the other funny thing is I am pretty far along learning Italian but I had never HEARD of this word!!
