minyan gal – I am flattered at your kind words – I don’t think of myself the way you describe me at all! There are many, many people who are waaaaay more knowledgable than me. I love learning also, and I have a lot of respect for the work Chabad does. The first Shabbos dinner we were ever invited to was with our local Chabad shluchim. My kids went to Gan Izzy when they were little. I hope your love of learning carries you for a very long time!
