I always tell people, "Naples, where I live, is a dirty, dirty place."I don't think people really understand to what dirty extent I mean.I drove from my friend's house, near Baia yesteday for lunch, and got my wife to snap pictures, from the car, of all the garbage on the way.Yes, there are garbage collectors, but I don't think they have a regular schedule. Eventually the pile will get big enough to where a bulldozer has to come to push the trash around for a while...then they burn it.www.stripesonline.com/article.asp?section=104&article...
