Oh I know. It's been really tough as travelers, because we are just backpacking this time around. So we have been in Naples without any AC, for example. And are about to be staying in Paris without AC. And here in Tuscany the AC is just one room where we don't sleep (well, we are sleeping there now, I am sleeping on the dining room floor to stay cool!)
I think that this is ruining my nieces' impression of Europe. Things that should be fun and pleasant are horrible.

@scottalanmiller well I'll be back on sunday evening.

Well no AC is quite tough. I've AC in all of my bedrooms. Basically impossible to sleep without.

American because that's where I was born and raised, no matter where I would emigrate to.

I'm sure you could get used to not having it. I mean, people have lived there thousands of years without it before and I'm sure they managed to sleep, lol. Still, like you, I'd rather stay used to the AC.

So the same as the Americans who made Stromboli. Thats where they were birn and raised.

Could, maybe. But there wasnt this heat even 20 years ago in these places. So these people have not done it. And there wasnt such a densenpopulation using up the water and blocking the wind. So not really the same.

Yeah I remember my summers 20 years ago and it was way more pleasant. Nowdays this is more of an african summer rather than an italian one. And population growth doesn't help!
I clearly remember that max temps of 35C where seldom events. Usually you stayed around 30-32C max -

Stromboli, if you look it up, was invested in America. Not by Italians, but my Americans. Americans assumed to be of Italian decent, but that's the same as saying "American." Stomboli is simply an American food no matter how you slice or dice it. American invented, in America, by Americans. Other than the Americans being of Italian heritage, why are you assuming anything else? It's from Philadelphia. Not even an Italian region of the US.
It has no ties to Italy other than being an American modification of the calzone, which is Italian itself. But 99% of pizza in the US is influenced from pizza in the US at this point, not directly from pizza in Europe. We are many generations past that point.

I get the point, but when I looked it up, it specifically said "Italian immigrant". That's what I based my point off of. If that's not the case, then I completely agree.

Italian immigrant is used to refer to people for many generations. My wife and kids are considered Italian immigrants in many cases, but have been here for several generations. But in their case, are also still legally Italians, so that muddies the point.
Basically everyone in the US is considered an immigrant (obviously, there are exceptions.) It's how many generations of immigrant are you.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immigrant_generations
Immigrant doesn't imply that they started in a different country. Only that they have an identifiable background from another country. My family still heavily identifies on the Swiss side as immigrants, but are on ten generations. But since we are still almost pure Swiss and can identify the ship we immigrated on and the immigration paperwork, we aren't natives in any way. My wife has copies of the immigration paperwork from her family, for example, as well.
