Tu sogni... No, that's the reality and you guys better start dealing with it as the O ratings are rapidly dropping to the depressed dem approvals. That said, my Danish friend living in Italy - and as all local legal residents thus on Italian public health care - recently needed and MRI to get her back checked up. She called the local hospital and sure, she could "get in and have it done in 3 weeks". She then complained and called back again, if she couldn't have it done faster somewhere? They suggested a different place where they had time next day "but you have to pay 95 Euro out of your own pocket". Next day they called her back and suggested she should come in 30 minutes earlier, "because then we have another half an hour to check your problem". Not bad I would say. Much better than the sad state of Italian economy :) Taro
