Life / Fr. John Bashobora National stadium Warszawa (Warsaw) [81]

Guys, who think they are Napoleons are locked in rooms without corners, guys who think they are women, are just like anyone else... Right, one has to believe in something totally illogical to buy this crap, you do believe in that, you're not an atheist, you've just replaced traditional religion with this load of garbage, it is your religion.

Travel / Just visited Poland - here is my random rant [154]

So here are at least ten benefits of recession:

That is true in case of recessions indeed... the problem is that current mess is not merely a recession, it is a strategic collapse of the western world.

15. High grass in public places. Poland's towns and cities would be much prettier if someone took care of lawns.

Very true. It's not uncommon to see a new or renovated public building and a disgusting lawn next to it with grass, which haven't been cut since years.

For many centuries Poland was a land of a small urban middle class and a big rural lower class, unlike countries like Italy or Germany:

LOL !

News / Restoring the Port of Elbląg? [113]

Can't you understand that there is a slight difference between maintenance and doubling the depth.

Good old Greggy, you've really thought this through, haven't you!

Harold, you are really a special needs individual :))) Let me help you a bit, it's not really that important by how many % depth would have to be increased or If depth is doubled, what really matter is the actual amount of work and that seems to be not much bigger than what is done on Szczecin-Świnoujście waterway annually.

Although to get Elblag to the depth where it can handle 9m draught ships

No one has ever suggested that.

ROFL!!! Name another port in Poland which regularly has its water depth increased by 70%.

LOL ! Half million m^3 of stuff have to removed each year to keep port in Szczecin (70km from the sea) available for 9m draught ships, these are not Norwegian fiords, each port in Poland needs to have their waterways regularly maintained.

Elblag local harbour can only offer 2.5m of depth.

It can be increased and that's what is regularly done on the ways to all Polish ports.

Face it, you've lost this one

And you won, already when you said that expats know it all straight away :))) You win the prize !!

And there is no suggestion that extra capacity is needed in Elblag.

Where ?

That boat cannot use the local harbour at Elblag

It could.

News / Restoring the Port of Elbląg? [113]

Probably because he realised that it's not worth spending a billion zloty on something that will only allow ships up to 5-6m draft anyway.

A lot of cargo around Baltic is being carried by small ships like this one: balticshipping.dk/fleet.htm and cost of 1 billion is the highest out of many mentioned.

A team of experts wouldn't bother wasting their time on such a moronic scheme:

Yes because the expat says so and expats know it all straight away :)))

News / Restoring the Port of Elbląg? [113]

It was forgotten about afterwards.

No it wasn't. Tusk said it's ok but not the priority so will be slightly delayed... only after some more time he forgot about it just like about many other things.

Is that why you keep avoiding the question of what cargo would be transported to Elblag and how?

If you failed to notice, a bit of cargo is being transported there even now and in some years when Russians were not making much mess, it was a few hundred thousand tonnes a year, so there is clearly some potential, no one is saying that Elbląg would leave behind 3 city.

News / Restoring the Port of Elbląg? [113]

What Kaczynski proposed was a mammoth waste of money

He has just picked up the idea, which was proposed long before he became PM and as far as I remember the general feeling in the media and among experts was that building the channel near Krynica is controversial (localization) but overall it's not a bad idea, you "expats" clearly know nothing about the actual issue and oppose it simply because Kacz supported it, to the point that edit claims inland water transport is nonsense when in fact it's very ecological and widely promoted in EU.

no silly personal comments .

Instead of just insulting people

You didn't even know that there is (and has been since centuries) a sea port in Elbląg, which is operating at a small fraction of its capacity due to problems with Russians and yet you know that it all doesn't make sense :))) That says all about your input into this thread. If Kaczyński said that Poland need more express roads and Tusk that it doesn't, you would be here "proving" that express roads are outdated shyt, which only Radio Maryja listeners could support and that you know it because expats know it all straight away, that's way they are CEOs and what's more, they still find time to teach some English !!!

Why is it that 2005 (for most of the year, an SLD government) had quite high tonnage figures, then the figures collapsed in 2006 and 2007 during the PiS Government?

Because Russians blocked the traffic as they did several times before...

No you didn't.

Yes I did, I asked If he was an expat and ho nodded, so I believe he confirmed that he's one of expats.

No Greggy, it doesn't work like that: you make a claim

Harold, It's you who claim that it doesn't make sense because... otherwise some private company would have already made it, which clearly shows your cluelessness regarding the issue, according your own "logic" there's no sense to build any new bridge in Poland because there's no private investors interested in such a venture, Harold the expert says so :))))

attempts at insulting people

I learn from the best one.

just give up now

No, I won't :))

Greggy, you're the one who says that "it should make sense to transport cargo from the south via rivers and then put it there [in Elbag] on the ships."

Logically It should make sense, If it really does I don't know, it's you, who claim that it doesn't.

In this case, if dredging a channel and building new port facilities might make commercial sense, investors would have taken a long hard look and done all their sums. The fact that no company is interested shows that the project does not make commercial sense.

Private companies use to build terminals, no ship would get even close to Gdynia or Gdańsk If the state was not investing a damn load of money into things such as maintaining entrance channel, navigation facilities, roads leading to the port and so on. Harold, you are clearly as clueless about this issue as crap in the closet is and your stuff about expats who know it all straight away really crossed the border of ridiculousness :)))

Nice to see that you still haven't learned what an 'expat' actually is. Here's a hint for you: not all foreigners in Poland are expats.

I asked the car cleaning guy If he's an expat, he said yes, it's really no different than PF people teaching English or reviewing restaurants, they are "expats" because they say so.

Really Greggy? And what kind of cargo would that be?

Harold, the cargo expert :)))

avoid wasting weeks of work is one of the reasons why expats tend to have well-paid managerial positions

Those teaching English or you mean the one cleaning cars next to Biedronka ?

I think there's very little commercial sense.

Wow, I would need to spend at least several weeks over this issue to know If it has commercial sense or not. Expat power !!!!11 They know it all !

News / Restoring the Port of Elbląg? [113]

I don't think there's any point making a new port in Elbląg.

There IS a sea port over there, the thing is that it is needed to cross the Russian waters to get to the open sea, which is a bit problematic... I think it should make sense to transport cargo from the south via rivers and then put it there on the ships. A lot of coal and other similar cargo used to be transported that way but I hardly see it these days.

History / Kaczynski's Legacy [88]

because of the central government doesn't allow feck all to be done.

Right, it doesn't allow you to fix a feckin sidewalk :))

The Bureaucratic processes here need an overhaul.

I know it very well, the thing is it has nothing to do with Polonophobia and germanic victimhood spread by stinking RAŚ, which btw is in coalition with PO -> guys who has done big feckin nothing to reduce burocracy for the last 6 years.

Wow man, I'm not even a Pole and I know more about how your country is run.

LOL !

I'm sure it's a matter of time when you "expats" will start to post the number of PZPR members and so on, of course without any info why people were joining there, but before that happen, let me tell you it's not really PZPR membership some people have problem with in case of this grandpa...

Finally Katowice is getting a much needed facelift, but most of the other surrounding cities are dumps - Zabrze, Chorzow, Ruda Slaska etc.

Do you realize central government has nothing to do with how the streets in city x look like ? I'm for giving more power to (all) regions, however it has nothing really to do with fixing sidewalks in Ruda Śląska, that can be easily done at the moment If only local authorities do the right job. A fact that RAŚ types blame "Warsaw" for everything, including dog shyt on the streets, simply proves that they are Polonophobic and pro-Germanic koonts.

News / Polish scientist discovers drug for leukemia [15]

Great news fot the women herself and sick ppl

True.

but what do you think- what are the chances the drug will receive patent and will be produced in Poland?

Hard to say as I'm not much into this sector but in quite a few similar cases "international companies" were putting their dirty hands on such innovations and we got nothing out of it. Hopefully some lessons were learnt...
