This morning, we received an e-mail at the MJL help desk informing us of a mistake on our Kosher Fish List article.

Read MoreWe Wish You a Dramatic Passover
We wish all of our readers a dramatic Passover.Actually we think it may be appropriate officially to wish you all an anxiety-ridden Passover.

I walked into the shul in San Jose the other day and felt inclined to wash off all the ruach ra’ah and tumah of the internet from my hands before davening. Suddenly I started wondering about how you can calculate a shuls level of frumness just by the fact that they had sinks devoted to hand washing. You may notice ...
