With so much of our communication taking place online (email, FB, Twitter, text), we now have the chance to review what we said, how we said, and to whom. I will add this to my soulwork of Elul.

Congratulations on a great article and great halakhic footwork. <br />You ought to translate this into Hebrew so that it can be circulated here in Israel, too.<br />Just one thing -- please write your blogs on a lighter background!
