Nevertheles, what you hey Fernando ... do you want a serious fight ;-)? This is not an Italian fault ... its Germany that has too many good programmers!! Italy don't look so bad if you match it with spain or england ... but if you look to germany ... then even the States look quite weak. In any case CC started in Italy about 10 month ago with the first "historic" italian tournament. before october 1999 there was only Fortress (Damiani) about 2200 Drago/Raffaela about 1600 and the Necchi's opening Books But we are fast growing and in the last 10 mounths was created: LarsenVb (Luca Dormio) about 1700 Leila (by ciccio, privateware) about 2000 Golem (by me) about 1400 E.s.c. (by claudio, privateware) about 1800 and then: the italian programmer forum http://www.egroups.com/group/g_6 (2070 messages from feb!!) and we have 2 other programmer: (one named Ringo,another Pisolo)not yet finished NOT BAD AT ALL FOR A POOR LITTLE COUNTRY like italy. Last but not least I have to add that italy is better than germany a netherland in football!!! (I didn't resist ;-) ciao gianluigi
