             soc.culture.italian FAQ
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

  Ciao. This monthly posting of frequently asked questions (FAQ), with 
answers, is intended to answer in advance questions that are often asked on 
the newsgroup soc.culture.italian (s.c.i for short) or simply provide you 
with some general information about s.c.i and Italy. Most of the answers are 
based on postings from the net on these subjects, or have been written
by netters. Use them at your own risk.

  As with any newsgroup, it is best to read this file before posting 
anything on s.c.i. This rarely happens, so the other purpose of the FAQ
is to function as a reference for easy consultation.

  Sections are in separate postings, marked by '=====SX' (where X is a number).
Open questions are marked by '==QX.Y' (where X is the section and Y 
is the question number. Use '==' or '=S' or '=Q' as search string).
Filtering the lines containing '==' will provide you with a complete 
table of contents (with '==' as indentation).

  Many FAQs, including this one, are available by anonymous ftp
from the archive site rtfm.mit.edu in the directory:
pub/usenet/news.answers. This FAQ is archived as: SCItalian-faq/part0
(... part8). This FAQ is also available by gopher. The address is
spfo.unibo.it. Look under the menu Virtual Italy.
