 Hi, I am sending you a PM with the name of an agent who was helpful with rentals in the past. Best wishes,
 You are right, Carole, I missed the tail....
 Thanks, Garda, we have a similar situation in the Spanish language and it is sometimes difficult to interpret the correct meaning. A dictionary does not always cover those "grey" areas.Â
I agree with Carole in that we may never get a "Grazie" button because of past experiences and that we can always write a short message. It is also possible to use the rating as a way of conveying our appreciation for a thread or post. The problem is always the same, it is not the feature itself, it is the way of using it.Â
 I agree with Adriatica in that people who live in areas prone to earthquakes take a different, more detached look at thing. I have close family living in places notorious for the incidence of these events, such as San Francisco and Chile and they simply joke about it all. I believe that the chances of dying by being run over by a car are much higher than through an earthquake and also, I am a firm believer in fate.Practically, most of Italy is prone to earquakes, eruptions and other catastrophes and this has not stopped millions of people from living happily in those areas. I don't think it ever will. And if a town or city is destroyed, they will build it up again in the same spot. Historically, this has happened most of the time and it will keep on happening.The only thing that we can't stop is the suffering for the victims, but we can do something about it.
 I would bet it is a lynx. Here you have a few photos:They are highly protected as, at a certain stage, they were nearly extinct.
