The engineer of a train passing through Poland could see no lights because the power had been knocked out. "We're running out of coal," he said to his fireman, "but I think we're coming to Gdansk or Danzig, or whatever they call it. Let's stop and send the porter out to buy fuel. Can you see the sign on the depot?" The fireman replied, "It appears to be Danzig in the dark." And the engineer shouted, "Buy coal, Porter!"
