The Italian embassy has details on how to become a citizen "automatically:" if you are a descendent up to the second degree (i.e. a grandchild) of a former Italian citizen, you can obtain citizenship by living in Italy for three years.
This is perfect for me, as my grandfather renounced his Italian citizenship pretty much the moment he stepped off the boat. Now the only question is whether I do it straight (i.e. pick up and move to the boot for three years) or crooked (hang out at my cousin's for a few weeks until they send somebody around to check if I'm really living there).
Either way, perbacco, I'm becoming a citizen!
