News / Composer Henryk Gorecki has died. [28]

because of its climate... and he named his work... you're free to interpret it as you wish... music is awesome that way...

Do you mean its "climate" is that of the said capitulation? In what way? Do you mean one can interpret the title of the symphony as one wishes?

@pgtx

Thank you for the info, but its content has already been known to me. Do you suggest the info answers my question to hague1cmaeron? How?

News / Composer Henryk Gorecki has died. [28]

I think he is best known for this piece

Do you mean Gorecki's symphony relates to the capitulation of the Jewish ghetto inhabitants in the German-occupied Warsaw? In what way?

Life / What do you like about Poland? [100]

Obviously there are a lot of things people don't like about Polish people and Poland

Who are the people who don't like a lot of things about Polish people? What are the alleged numerous things they dislike?

News / Praising Poland can be dangerous [45]

Also personal attacks are against the forum rules.

And are racist slurs, such as "dumb Polacks", for this forum rules? Is the censorship of posts written by Poles trying to speak against the hate-spreading psychopaths, such as the Scottish one here, for the forum rules? It seems to me this forum is a medium designed to spread Polonophobic hate and racism. Who is its owner? I hear it's an American? What is his name?

News / Praising Poland can be dangerous [45]

Helsinki is the the geographical East of Western Europe

What do you mean by that? If geographically Poland is in "Eastern Europe", aren't e.g. Finland and Norway in Eastern Europe too, or perhaps in North-Eastern Europe?

Latvia and Estonia somehow sneaked to the West of the EE,

And what do you mean by that? Do you mean that Latvia and Estonia are in "Western Europe", that they "somehow" moved there? Exactly how?

Czech republic earned the place

And what do you mean by that? What place did the CzR earn and exactly how?

Oh, Lithuania, right. Extreme East of the EE

Do you mean that Latvia and Estonia are in "Western Europe" but their close neighbour - one of the fellow Baltic states - Lithuania is in the "extreme" Eastern Europe? How would that be possible?

but this might be my nationalistic bias.

Or perhaps it is something else? By the way what nationalistic bias would that be - what are you?

News / America's Tea Party like Poland's Solidarnosc? [59]

"America's Tea Party like Poland's Soldiarnosc?" (sic) asketh "Polonius3".

It appears the answer may be "yes" if the word "Soldiarnosc" is changed to "Solidarnosc". Anyone curious why?

Solidarność was socialistic.

That is untrue. Solidarnosc was neither "socialistic" nor "socialist" nor "capitalist", but, in fact, a dazzling mix of various and diverse ideas and approaches, including socialist and capitalist ones. Lech Walesa himself dreamed of future Poland as "another Japan", didn't he? And weren't many in Solidarnosc almost fanatically pro-American? Didn't they admire President Reagan, Mrs Thatcher (the latter isn't, of course, American)?

Central Europe suggests that Europe stretches far more East than the Bug River.

Doesn't Europe stretch beyond the Bug? Why not?

News / Praising Poland can be dangerous [45]

"Praising Poland can be dangerous" sez "Polonius3"! I've read his post carefully, but haven't found any proof that "praising Poland can be dangerous" in it. And does "Polonius3" mean that it's wrong of some people to disagree with other people's statements? Does he perhaps mean that to disagree with statements by folks writing in the Economist is an unthinkable sacrilege? Why specifically would it be so very wrong and sacrilegious?

Are there also "Polonius 1" and "Polonius2"? If so, imagine what ideas of what is dangerous and wrong they can have....

History / Poland is great Mother of all Slavs from Baltic to Balkan [177]

One person can't speak for 40 million individuals.

If so, aren't you speaking above for them, including, ahem, myself?

Unless he's met them all and canvassed their opinions

Have you?

... So that's what you meant when you stated: "Most people in Poland have probably met few if any Poles"?

Me russian? nooooo

You? maybe ;)

So you're not a muscovite? From the info on your profile I assumed you are. Did you lie there? If so, maybe you are a muscovite after all? So what are you, and what do you mean by "our wonderfull capital" (sic)?

In central Europe we are a mixed bunch :)

Poles and Germans are closer than Poles and Serbs, everything else is artificially created theoretically (on both sides).

That seems to be correct. Some of the greatest Polish patriots have been of German origin, e.g. Wincenty Pol. But we also like and respect Serbs.

Travel / The World's Sexiest Cities: San Francisco, Paris, Warsaw... [28]

The description of Warsaw by the Australian chap is, predictably, the harshest of all, or rather the only harsh one. "The Polish capital isn't exactly romantic ... ridiculous proportions ... some weird fluke of the gene pool..." Does it follow places like Seoul and Tel Aviv are exactly romantic, and the good looks of their inhabitants are the result of some normal "fluke of the gene pool"?

Warszawa?! that's funny! lol

What exactly is so funny? Do tell.

Love / What do Polish guys think of Irish girls? [187]

Re: What do Polish guys think of Irish girls?

I think Irish women, just like Polish women, are among the most beautiful in the world. I mean real Irish women - from the Irish Republic. One of them, a lady from Cork, I shall never forget - beautiful, smart, tough, artistic and spiritual. 100 % my type.

Polonia / Life in Poland vs Norway - good for children, benefits, etc? [43]

SeanBM, the guy has explained to you what he meant. Are you able now to answer his question about Norway? As for me, I would say to locobron: if you are Polish, don't go, for God's sake, to Norway, but stay in Poland and try to make ends meet here. I wish all Poles living abroad, especially those toiling and suffering in Britain, started coming back to Poland.
