vesuvio

Antonio Scarfoglio and his family, Edoardo Scarfoglio and Matilde Serao both writers and editors, would have been happy to see that endemic Napoli problems like wastes seem to have come to an end. (where did all the wastes go? Hope not in the Sea…or quickly burned or but into Vesuvio… or shipped overseas). In 1906 Vesuvio Volcano erupted causing big destruction. The Olympic games should have been in Italy but, due to the situation, the International community responded promptly and London accepted to take the burden in a short time. The 1908 London Olympics. In the same year, 1906, since we probably live on a delicate egg - as Columbus proofed - San Francisco had a major earthquake and many inhabitants thought it was the end of the world.

In 1908 it was also the turn of Messina, Sicily, to experience a major earthquake and even “ermetic” poet Salvatore Quasimodo went, with his family, to help. Not only negative things though since 1908 Olympics saw the famous Dorando Pietri episode. The Marathon man who suddenly didn’t know if he had to go east or west in his final bit. He was disqualified so he lost a medal but Princess Alexandra gave him personally a much more important Cup. He liked to define himself the one who lost by winning. Much close to Antonio Scarfoglio way of thinking. Once more, in our documentation, we found press in Torino started a subscription for him, a way to cheer him up in times where athletes were going in very humble way to the olympics, maybe by train for days and days of travel.

Even London at that time was not pollution free as can be observed by reading Faraday’s letter as per at http://dbhs.wvusd.k12.ca.us/webdocs/Chem-History/Faraday-Letter.html. Earthquakes in China and Pollution - with many Western world outsourcing to Eastern Companies with documented dioxyne emission problems… - seem to be endemic problems too. The recent South of France atomic problems should give more warnings than the self explanatory Chernobyl ones. Transparent problems you can not see. Yet eat. Do not break the seed. Valid for DNA and else. I still have in my memory the blue labelled straight bananas who did not get yellow. From Green to dark to rotten. Experiment done. I read about a project but, with due respect, I would ask a P.M. if he/she would go live in a house 1 mile away from an atomic plant. I would prefer Wind and Sun. Water eventually. Keeping it safe, not private, to drink. We are a bit spoilt and possibly bored. I could see “flavoured waters” when some do not have plain taste one.Forgive my editorial but I am sure Columbus could have proven that, living on an egg, it is not intelligent to make holes in it and /or suck the white part and/or break the surface. Our egg is not perfectly spinning on its axes so boiling it with waves is not a solution… Don’t you think so? Take an egg, experiment or… just Columbus word. Money is not worth if you do not have a Planet.

It was time.. I did not read a child school book and I was asked to help about Information Technology questions. No big things, just which is which looking at shapes to say about a modem etc. But a further set of question drew my attention. The typical icons of Word, Excel, Paint and you (a very little child) should say which is useful what for. School is doomed. No talks about free software, Lotus Smartsuite ™ or Approach database or GNU foundation or Linux or.. you mention. I wonder who and how has been deciding the book or who and what for has accepted to depict a specific product as a reference to brainwash (sorry but you must call things with their words) small children. A small computer for any child. Right. Loaded with what? Backdoors? Rootkits maybe coming from a (omitted 4 letter brand) music CD? Global? Your Passion first, your Potential is after. Our Social attention about this event will be FAIRLY given to Multi Schlerosis. In memory of my father. Alberto Codo. His surname means Elbow in Spanish or - I am told - Heartbeat in japanese, with “K”. As per http://www.kodo.or.jp/news/index_en.html. Or just visit www.trawell.com/50. Thank you Mr Kidby O.A.M. We still have to meet. Shame on you, yet with a smile.
