Please, don't get me wrong: I got your mix up as a compliment, as I
really *would have liked* to be the author :-)

Yup, I'm 41 now, and I can still remember well those days between
march and may 1978....

:-) The exact phrase is "vedi Napoli e poi muori", and its literal
translation would sound like "see Naples and then you can die" -
despite the seeming gallows humour, it simply states that one has to
see Naples at least once in his life...

Take care.

P.S.: for the other contributors: I apologize for the off-topic
discussion, but I've always thought forums like places where, as in a
pub in front of a glass of beer, people friendly share their common
interests and curiosities...
