I meant, don't get involved in an active role. If a vote will come 
I would not mind if you vote. I grant you that right.... just playing at 
patronizing you:-))

I would hope that you were smart enough to expect reactions such as
mine in initiating a newsgroup to discuss opera and pasta dishes (those
were the first two items in your list of reasons). Would you be upset
if I started a neswgroup called soc.culture.british_black-pudding or
soc.culture.british-royal or soc.culture.british-hygiene? How would you
like to be patronized by somebody who uses a lot of stereotypical views
of your country? I am very tired of people like you who think they have
the right to put their mouth where it doesn't belong.

In addition to all of this you even forgot the name of the judge...

I agree with Rosario, gratitude is optional. You will not have mine.

Massimo

PS All my gratitude goes to Fabio instead.
