Is Hugh Mo a real name? How can you be called Mo? ;)

Ettore Mo is one of the most important Italian reporters. I own a book for which he wrote an essay about Thai society and culture.

If it was "Hugh Jass" I might have filed it as a nickname...

Argument accepted. I recall now as well that you also had in Italy a man called Dario Fo who was a Nobel laureate.

Any more people like Bo, Ro, Lo or Do in Italy? ;)

Dario Fo is the most performed Italian playwright worldwide. I bought and read his Manuale minimo dell'attore when I studied (at amateur level) acting many years ago. Quite a fascinating insight into the art of theatrical performing.

As for your suggestions, there is Carlo Bo, scholar, translator and politician, founder of the IULM and a main figure of literary criticism of the 20th century. The State University of Urbino, one of the most prestigious of the country, is named after him.

Hehe, it is a real name and he has even done more Spectrum games, most of them quite similar to this mediocre Neighbours (which, technical-wise is quite acceptable, though!)

I think the real question here for [mention]Ivanzx[/mention], is why he was playing the game in the first place!

We need answers :D
