I have no problems with Giacomo. He's the most helpful person here when it comes to west coast information. The pieces of his information that I've googled check out. Some of it I eventually read about in books or articles. Some people were accusing him of applying content from a fictional movie to information in one of his comments. I looked at the comment they were talking about and it seemed rather trivial. So, meh.

Anyhow, if I'm ever lucky enough to visit Buffalo, I 'll have to check out this pizzeria. These guys got out of the rackets to run this place. That's how successful it is. People must be lined up down the block.


"...the successful annihilation of organized crime's subculture in America would rock the 'legitimate' world's foundation, which would ultimately force fundamental social changes and redistributions of wealth and power in this country. Meyer Lansky's dream was to bond the two worlds together so that one could not survive without the other." - Dan E. Moldea
