Ciau Grant,
Sicilians are very friendly and welcoming people so I wouldn't worry
about that at all, especially since you're sicilian yourself.
As you know I can't stand George Bush or the american government but
thats got nothing to do with my feelings towards the people of
America. I'm sure all Sicilians and people in this group would never
discriminate against anyone over this iraq issue.
I would look down on George Bush maybe if he came to my town or
Rumsfeld or any other of the PNAC (Project For the New American
Century) members.
But certainly never and for no reason against any american especially
a Sicilian-American.
P.S. Do you fancy starting a group for the sicilian language that is
not just a linguistic group, e.g. where we could talk about world
issues etc in Sicilian to further our development and knowledge of
the language?
Parramu ntra nu po.
