Yea, if anyone knows what it's like to get fucked over, again and again and again it's Poland. I know there are inherent political reasons this is in Poland's interest, but I also believe there is a deep sense of "When we fell to tyranny, no one came to help, we won't let that happen to you" in the national memory.
Edit: Fixed grammar insecurities I had in my comment.

Interesting! I feel like I should know this considering how much time I've spent at wineries and wine caves in Valle de Guadalupe, MX. I suppose when you spend that much time tasting wine, certain bits of your memory fail you.

Burleigh. Hahahaha. I honestly don't care what people name their kids, but this one is ... something? I just imagine the Dr. delivering like a 12 lb kid and exclaiming "Whoa, that's a burley baby!" And the parents just going "Yea, that's the one, that's what we will name it"

Oh good, thanks! I guess I should probably take that last bit out then.
