Traditional Roman tiles are almost disappearing. Is it a good sign or bad?

On my opinion when a tradition disappears we all become poor. We all lose our roots. Roofs have to be protected and so all old buildings, of rich and poor people, it is culture. CIAO dall'Italia

That is very wise saying Galilaeus, however, you will probably agree that our love and duties to traditions is only meaningful if traditions have some real values.

x pekin I've not seen any image of your own and no news about you. What do you mean about real values ? My g'ma was poor, deaf, illitterate, spoke only dialect but worked hard and loved deeply. I had the privilege to walk with her but only for a precious but too short time. These are for me real values and her way of life is something to preserve. CIAO dall'Italia

Galilaeus, "working hard" [you probably meant living only by her honest labour] and "loving deeply" [to others] are real values (or virtues). I wish I met your g'ma. But I apologise for being so pedantic to say that, not all "traditions" are valuable or deserve to be followed.

[2. time writing, typing error corrected] Galilaeus, I see very wise comments coming from you direction and my best wishes for Easter. As I have made a comment to http://www.panoramio.com/photo/2457045 earlier, “I am more and more convinced that, the medium we are all contributing and benefiting from is a new kind of "Open University" and a very democratic one too. Let us celebrate it and make use of it so long as we are allowed to do so. (It may not live long).” As for me, I shall quote another of my comment to http://www.panoramio.com/photo/8331426 “we are all citizens of the World. Sooner we realise it the better. I used to live in Istanbul and still care about everything there, but we care about everything in the World too.” Yes indeed, many thanks to Bunyamin Kivrak.
