I accept your apology. Thank you. Your point is well-taken about the other group list you mentioned (should not have mentioned by name, though), but at the time that I signed on here to the CR, I had no idea I could use another name besides my screen name. So it is a moot point.
Just for the record, my family and I never at any time personally complained to the Yeshivah, you were mistaken in thinking that. We personally went outside each time to tell the drunken boys to get off our lawn and remind them that it was 3 AM and people were trying to sleep. But several of my neighbors, some who moved away from the block in very recent years specifically because of inyanim such as this one among many others, did in fact make their complaints known to the R”Y. I could not bring myself to say something to him, because he was a personal friend of my family, and I felt uncomfortable with the possibility of sounding like I was giving HIM mussar.
Although apparently (as you stated) the chagiga was stopped (and I merely thought it was quieter because they moved it indoors to their new building), I had nothing whatsoever to do with that, though I was tested time and again by the thoughtlessness that occurred over the years. There were however still some limos coming down the street late at night, possibly with outside bochurim who thought the Yeshivah was still making a chagiga, and this was still a problem, noise-wise. We will see what happens tonight. And I likewise wish you and all of klal Yisroel a freilichen Purim.
