Everything is Related to Naples
- ErN

These items are all in the main index, as well. The original premise of this list is explained in the title, above, and no. 1, below; that is, find some whimsical mere Six Degrees of Separation connection between almost anything and Naples. The collection, however, evolved into simply a place to put generally goofy, quirky and more unusual items. Thus, I discontinued it as a special section. There are 165 entries in this series. They are marked by ErN# on the pages. Links below are by number & title:
