Hell099: Pogrow is the name that was signed on the letter sent out to all mothers of single boys in BMG (i think the “title” was director). He doesn’t attempt to hide his involvement in the project, though he certainly doesn’t look for the limelight as a result of his involvement.
What relevance that has to the issues is beyond me. If you are insinuating impropriety by the fact that the address for donations is him home address, feel free to contact the NASI Project and they will give you a exact accounting of where and how money gets spent. They have nothing to hide.
As I’ve mentioned numerous times. It seems that the elephant in the room is the answer to the follwing question:
Are the numbers of girls who have dated 5/10 years and are still single, relatively equal to the numbers of boys who have dated 5/10 years.
Yes or No
You claim that based on conversations with older girls and shadchanim you are of the firm the belief that the numbers are relatively equal.
Fair enough. I certainly can’t debate the ppl with whom you’ve had conversations. I guess the people who have devoted their time and energy to this issue feel strongly differently (as do the 70 R”Y who signed the letter). I think one thing we agree on is that it would be ridiculous to sign a letter regarding the concept of close in age shidduchim if that is basically irrelevant to the shidduch scene.
