It's not a myth that often they refuse to speak italian to you, or part of them are barely capable (or willing )to speak italian, or serve you after german speaking people, despite you were there first.
That's awful! I was a little surprised that what little Italian I know was essentially useless in that part of Italy. People were polite to us at least despite fumbling through in German. Don't schools teach in Italian throughout Italy? It would seem that standardizing the language would be good for the country, the economy, etc. and Italian is the obvious choice.

Tee hee, I love posts where someone tells someone else to go back to school.
If you were a poor Indian with no weapons, and a bunch of conquistadors came up to you and asked where the gold was, I don't think it would be a good idea to say, "I swallowed it. So sue me."

I still have cold sweat nightmares about going to school.... something like my boss calling me and telling me that my grad school got a message from my undergrad school, who got a letter from my high school, telling them there was an error in my records and I still need to test on Lineal Algebra and Calculus I, otherwise my high school diploma and all afterwards are invalid.... Here is where I wake up with cold sweat and shivering in terror...

Be without fear in the face of thine enemies
Stand brave and upright that the Lord may love thee
Speak the truth always even if it means thy death
Protect the helpless and do no wrong
