Taking care of business in the Italian parliament

Italian parliament

You gotta love how they do things in Italy. Apparently the problem of lawmakers chatting on their cellphones while in session has gotten so completely out of hand (you'd think they could be bothered to pay attention) that the speaker of the lower house of the Italian parliament is having loudspeakers, to be set at a very high volume, installed underneath each deputy's seat in an effort to drown out all other conversation. What, they've never heard of cellular jammers? We could totally hook them up cheap.
