Rav Moshe and Rav Yaakov were both niftar in Adar of 1986. IINM, there was also a third gadol who was niftar that month. Anyone remember who it was?

I don't know the answer to that question, but I just wanted to point out that Rav Yaakov was niftar at the end of Adar 1 and Rav Moshe was niftar in the middle of Adar 2, so most years, Rav Moshe's Yartzheit is commemorated before Rav Yaakov's despite the fact that the Petirah was later.

Thoughts on renaming this to Pesach Program Discussion Master Thread?

There is unfortunately lots of negativity in the industry, but that current title is just depressing.

Thanks.

However, as a ramification of the change, the thread will now wither into disuse as it no longer has that popcorn-ring to it.
