The irony here is that because the Pols still have thier antique coal burning furnaces they will stay warm this winter while western Europeans will be fighting off frostbite. How many years off thier lives will a harsh winter like that take?

There's a reason that installing a wood burning fireplace costs a fortune in the UK, it's a luxury. They will stay warm because that's the best way to heat a home in minutes when it gets to minus 25 Celsius outside in winter there.
