When I was a kid, the local library had a notice referring to 'BOOKS IN POLISH'. For years I thought they were talking about some of the books being taken away to be polished.

I remember when my mother took me to primary school and all she could do is smile and say "hello".

Look no further than our current Nato secretary general (former Danish PM Anders Fogh Rasmussen) or the current Udenrigsminister Villy Søvndal (Minister for Foreign Affairs).
