Sobieski, worry not, it came out as intended, typos notwithstanding.

Speaking of your nick… I used it in several forums, but then settled on 2×4, or cluebat in some places (pacifist-aggressive, LOL!). Sooo, yea, it’s yours to carry, do it a justice.”

Haha, thanks. I will definitely do the name justice. He’s one of my favourite historical figures. Without Sobieski’s contribution, the fate of Western Civilization may have been drastically different. Also, being of Polish ancestry myself, I hold the name in very high regard. :)

And for the record, I was born in Canada to 2 first generation immigrants that fled the state of martial law in Poland in ’83, so I grew up listening to countless stories of communism and Soviet occupation, but never experienced it personally. I have nothing against Russian people per se, but I don’t feel to fondly about their leadership.
