Actually Nicholas, Im of the exact same belief. No body gives a fuck where abouts the boot your people came from, as long as you were a crook as well.

Nothing for nothing, but though I also had thought Crea's family hailed from Piedmont, certain guys swear black and blue he was Calabrese. Another one though is Daniel Leo, who's family I thought came from a commune in La Marcha. There's a number of other guys that came from Tuscany, Bari, Puglia, etc, etc.

I can almost guarantee some body will disagree and claim that it wasonly Sicilian, Calabrian and Napolitan guys that had some sort of inborn "mafia gene" that precluded other Italians from being criminals.
