Feedback / Read PF, but never post? [29]

why is it so hard for Udo and others to register and use the forum freely?

Udo and about ten others might not feel good about posting as the they share the same ip. Strangely, it is the same ip as that used by Des Essientes.

And are they free?

i doubt it.

Genealogy / John Wilczewski [3]

My Great Grandfather is John Wilczewski who came to the states in 1890

you need to establish his date of birth. then the records will become clearer when u search through them.

check: naturalization records, social security records, (possibly WWI) war records.

look for: trade directories

there are many other routes to follow too :)

Travel / Requirements for bringing a Dog into Poland [30]

What border crossing are u talking about ?

There is no German/Polish border control (usually)

However, during Euro2012 there may be spot checks.

I have my doubts about the worming thingy. I wouldn't bother with that. But if asked just give the answer required: yes, of course.

Life / Which services is Poland still waiting for? [218]

it also says "24 H". there's a 24 hour McD's there?

24 H /hr does not mean twenty-four hours. it means until midnight (the 24th hour)

very few shops are open 24/7. usually small places that also sell alcohol.

News / Don't go to Poland ... because you could end up coming back in a coffin [313]

I notice that wroclaw fan zone will be secure. any trouble and there will be no escape.

most folk i know (and myself) will be leaving the city for as long as possible in june.

there will be a fight somewhere as there always is. let's hope a coffin won't be required.
