i wonder what would happen if some day in the future, a minyan of 10 was misinterpreted as a minyan of 10! (that's 10 factorial, i'm not excited to repeat myself). Apparently it's several hundred thousand larger than the Tel Aviv metro area accordiing to the 2006 census. On the plus (?) side, I feel like there would be fewer denominations. However, it would also be difficult to get a minyan to FIT in a shiva house. They'd have to make stadiums in which people can sit shiva.

have convinced me that my husband should join LJ, just to read yours! He's got degrees in Math and Computer Science and is also a bit of an amateur language nerd.
