Try if possible to avoid the comments about driving to shul on Saturday; counting women in a minyan; and the RA's admission of women rabbis to membership. I for one would like to hear some new variations. I'd like to know a bit more about how I imperil my share of the Olam Haba by davening on Shabbos in a Conservative shul (not temple). -- Ken Wolman Bell Communications Research @ Livingston lcuxc!kenw "Maybe, and that's final!"
