Heh, the Spanish Gov'ts position is that the siesta tradition should be eliminated. The reality is not so much. Most stores in the city don't close from 1:30-4:00 every afternoon anymore (a practice that was prevalent in even in Madrid in the late 1980s) but in the provinces, it's liklier than not that most people nappy-bye or just plain rest in some form or another for 45 min. or so in the mid-day...
