++: legitimate question!

I personally believe I should explain: of course I do not mean this as spam. It all tracks back to an IM conversation I had with a friend after having stumbled by pure chance on the infamous video again after having already seen it some months ago; we had some laughs at the embarassing answer, and the relevant portion of our talk is:

(In Italian)

(0.52.59) me: iniziero' ogni mio discorso con "I personally believe"
(0.53.03) me: da ora in poi...
(0.54.35) **: me devi imparare a dirlo con quella bellissima intonazio
+ne
(0.55.16) me: io lo scrivo e la gente deve immaginarsi che io lo facci
+a
(0.55.22) me: anzi
(0.55.32) me: forse mi limitero' all'acronimo
(0.55.48) me: IPB

The translation is:

(0.52.59) me: I'll start every speech of mine with "I personally belie
+ve"
(0.53.03) me: from now on...
(0.54.35) **: but you have to learn how to pronounce it with that wond
+erful accent
(0.55.16) me: I write it down and people must imagine I do so
(0.55.22) me: nay
(0.55.32) me: maybe I'll limit myself to the acronym
(0.55.48) me: IPB

Perhaps I shouldn't link directly to the clip but to a blog entry somewhere else in which I explain all this...

Update: done that.
