Credit This app is dedicated to the memory of my friend "Al". He was the one who, in 1981 when I was 12, introduced me to the Apple world and to BASIC programming. He was able to create a program to guess USA states by showing their shape. In that way I learned the names of all 50 US states. Then we made a modification to guess all 20 Italian regions. In that way I learned how to make a program in BASIC.

Thank you Al for having taught me love for programming and love for Apple!!! I will always remember you.
