Language / Software to convert my keyboard to polish [13]

Hi Lt Navy!
You can get the Polish alphabet at <mophy.com>
I paid $20 CDN
You can get a trial version first and then pay to use it.
All you do is press your right ALT key and the letter you wish to use and it will pop up on your computer screen and all you do is double click on the letter and it will "magically" appear!

Good luck!
This is quick and easy!

History / Katyn- forgiven and forgotten? [111]

:)I am :)that someone has menioned Katyn Forest in Russia. My grandfather(my mother's father) was killed in Katyn at the beginning of the second world war when my mther was only 13. He was a member of the military and was one of the "Intelygensia' that were murdered. He was a commissioned officer but I am not sure of his rank. Thanks to the Russians I never got to meet him. Both sides of my family were from wealthy families who lost everything during the war. Both parents belonged to Armia Krajowa. They escaped to England where they married, had two children and then came to Canada by ship to Halifax,Nova Scotia and then by train To Ottawa. I was 18 months old and my brother was 3 months old. My father worked in that area for awhile and then found work in Southwestern Ontario where we grew up, along with another sister.

I am very proud of my Polish heritage. I have visited Poland twice and hope to again someday. I have friends and family there. I hope to keep in touch with this forum and would love to hear from all of you in the future!! Thanks Anielka for your information about Katyn.
