Dave says:
today is Fat Thursday! In Poland, they celebrate the beginning of Lent by eating up all the fat, so at the training in Szczecin today we hade (sounds like) Punchki - which we klnow from Toledo's Polish American community. Woohoo!
25 mostly young people here, journalists, youth advocates, the association of law students, rural and urban folks - LOTS of interest in how the tools of community organizing can come in to their work.
More later.

Today got totally confused about who took over what when and who laid ruin to Szczecin after/during which war. Beginning to sympathise with the Polish feeling of resentment to much of the rest of the world. Visited the Pomeranian Dukes' Castle where Boleslaus the Wrymouthed resided in the early 12th C. Trying to understand the Gryfits and relationship to griffins which I thought were just from fairy tales.
