Ermm... I certainly think you're not right. Germany is West-Central Europe, and Poland is Central.

News / Thoughts on present day Lech Walesa [27]

Yes, Walesa was the right man in the right place. On the other hand there are several theories(plots?) about his past.

But I don't think that comparison Walesa with Hitler is a good idea, although several historical cases can be similar(be sure that comp two different sitation with different background can be specious).

Bloody hell, in the past there was sth different. Eh, in this point - my bad. But in the English one is my version!

But let we see... If we connect headlands like: Roca in Portugal, Cape Matapan, North Cape and central point of Ural mountains - we've got a cross that has a middle point in the Masovian Plain.

Moreover Poland lies in the Central European Time. It's not the main argument here ;-).

But in conclusion - what are we arguing about?

Genealogy / How "Polish" Am I? My grandfather was Polish and came from the war to England. [6]

Your surname is Pilipczuk? If yes - it sounds Polish, and it is. But I don't know if you're Polish. Your grandpa was Polish, so you can be quater Polish... Actually it's hard to say, I think.

Life / Buying computer system in Poland [20]

In Poznan there is "Znak" shop. I've bought there my own computer, although it was in Warsaw. As I checked it, they've got similar prices to the 'computer market' ('giełda komputerowa' in Polish). They have website, znak.pl, but I don't see English version :-/.

And of course allegro will be cheaper, but you know how it's running.
I hope it'll be usefull for somebody.

News / Thoughts on present day Lech Walesa [27]

Walesa's career should have ended in the 80's or earliest 90's, and after that stay as a Polish authority - an important person who was fighting with communism. Unfortunately he's made fun of himself during his presidency. Nowadays he's more less cleaned of his boorishness. He has intuition, and sometimes says sth smart. But often it's easier to noticed he has no knownledge. He's an example of social promotion (awans społeczny? - when sb from lower class in society is promoted to the higher one), that doesn't fit to the person.

Furthermore, while he was the president, he was suspected that not everything he has been doing was so clear as it should be.

Life / Internet Speeds in Poland [18]

Activation in this case means one time fee. You know - when staff comes to your flat and install everything you need to connect Internet. Cables, modem, etc.

I've got UPC's chello internet in my house and I'm pretty satisfied. And in my case I had to buy a full service option - means cable television, and then Internet.

And as you said - it's similar when you're buying a connection to Norway. You pay for activation, than you gotta pay every month another fee(it depends of option that you chose). Of course if I understood you correctly ;). If you find sth that interests you, you can show us the link, and that I'll try to translate what you exactly want to know.

I hope I helped you a bit.

News / Black Immigrant living in Poland infects dozens of women with HIV [174]

Hm, firstly it's very complicated thread. And it's quite old - it has half a year? Our 'dear' Simon Mol(Simon Moleke Njie) was an immigrant from Africa - Cameroon.

He said a lot of interesting things about his past. His own autobiography states he has been working as a journalist, was persecuted and jailed for his writing, sought political asylum in several African countries, was granted asylum in Ghana where he was persecuted again. Bla bla bla...

It's hot air. There were a lot of programs and articles in the newspapers that showed the truth.

He came to the Poland(I don't remember why exactly...) and he got the asylum. He was thought as a human rights, social and antiracist activist, etc. He knew how to get it all together, as we can see he was very streetwise. I still don't know how he did it all.

As we know he 'really liked' many women. And they WEREN'T w*ores! They were quite young, they have been studying on the universities or have graduated, etc. They were social activist, bla bla bla, and more that funny things. Let's name them it this way - w*ores, right. Quite proper name for the people that are 'respected and looked up to' in the Western World.

Now I have to change the topic - Simon can/could say he hasn't known about his AIDS problem. Bul*****. Everyone blackman who came from Africa to any European country and is trying to get asylum - has to have special check-up. No way he couldn't known. He was aware of what he was doing.

And her we've got the point. They shouldn't ask whether he had the AIDS cos that it seemed as everyone who is black and comes from Africa 'has to have AIDS'. And he was so 'well known' person - human rights activist, oh yeah...

Moreover if someone of the women was thinking and talking about condoms - one of his most interesting arguments was that one: 'to cukierek przez papierek' in proper words I think...<:) There women were just used by him, because he find the proper way to do that.

And it's not a problem about this guy. It's only the background. The problem is that those women were with their gaze eyes fixed on him and on that what they had in their minds - the proper education about fighter for rights, etc. That's the point I think.

I hope my English was enough good to understand what I was talking about :-/.
