There are elevated aqueducts that ‘Italians’ built in France and Britain almost 2000 years ago that are still standing.
I went to school in Italy and have every respect for the Italians- I am half Sicilian, by the way.
I did speak too quickly. I just admire the Germans I worked with- the Italians and French were more interested in eating, drinking molto vino and their mistresses.
Those were the Romans. Not exactly modern Italians.
The Ancient Egyptians built the pyramids, you think the current group could build anything?
