   I asked one of my italian friends to explain the video to me:
   
   ''It's about the launch of a new radio station between the Vatican and the Pope's residence of Castelgandolfo. The first man who is speaking is a researcher and says that it is the first time in which micro waves (or better, as he says: ultra short waves) are being used in such a distance. He wants to express his deeply gratefulness to the Pope who gave his permission and made it possible to make this experience. His satisfaction as an Italian and as a researcher reach its peak when he thinks that it is the first application of a scientific progress realized thanks to a great Pope like Pio XI, and it is also happening in the day of a happy and lucky anniversary for Italy and Christianity. (Don't know what day he is talking about). Then the Pope says something like "Here begins a great satisfaction of the desire that we were expressing right before (...) Why has the human mind such a clear vision, measures such exact measurements and measures what the eye can't see and the hand can't reach? The divine goodness gave the human mind the possibility for the secret divine omnipotence and knowledge that governs everything to become real benefits for humanity'' 10 years 2 months ago

   I was intrigued by Pope Pius XI's vestments here. He looks like a cowboy-butcher-pimp (no disrespect intended to the institution). 10 years 8 months ago
