    “Says the guy who just claimed that minhag Sphard is abjectly superior. And, obviously someone will find Sphardi Slichos easier; they say the same ones every day. That doesn’t make them better (or worse)”
    not sure what you’r point was, i just meant that their singing by selichos makes it more enjoyable.

    The sephardim sing by their selichos, and they are considered to have the best mesorah. so when nusach ashkenaz and sephard begin to sing, they are simply returning to the mesorah.
    As an aside i know a sephardic bachur who came to his ashkenazi yeshiva’s selichos and said the sephardic version is much easier to push himself to come as it is more enjoyable.
    so why don’t we all just leave each other alone?
    no one is right or wrong.(at least in my opinion.)

    “Robin Hood also thought he was doing a chessed.”
    He hurt people, hitching doesn’t.

    “Its dangerous both for the bachurim and has caused many car accidents in lakewood already.”
    When was the last time a bochur hitching in lakewood had got hurt or kidnapped?

    Why do people say they love babies so much that they want to eat them?
    does it mean they’re cannibals and they don’t like the baby?

    uniteds airlines policy was that you get compensation for canceled flights but not for delayed flights.
    However although it was a different plane and 14 hours later it wasn’t considered canceled just delayed.
    But as the customer service told me United was “nice” enough to offer a ten dollar meal voucher.(which couldn’t really buy anything kosher in the airport.

    Jack,
    The recovery ended once we reached the spot we were in in 2007, now is new progress. you can’t have the “recovery” going on for the next hundred years, at some point it has to end.

    “The rationale is probably it would compromise safety”
    Airlines used to offer compensation for this, and planes didn’t crash that much more often, so that doesn’t sound right.

    jackk,
    The dems may be amazing at economy, but they still don’t talk about it in their campaign points, and they haven’t yet explained a better way than trump to run it.
    and just by the way, the tax break was for low income too.
