If you have negative info on a great Rabbi, post it now.
Don't worry it will come soon enough and they will have you to thank.

Don't know and don't care. Is talking into a mic one of those DA rules you follow?

I will remember this post when a great Rabbi passes and is posted in the RIP thread. Everyone will have you to thank for my negative posts then.

That works if the great rabbi you're referring to was also a politician, and that's why everyone is posting about him or interested in his death - otherwise, it's mourning his death just like every other great rabbi's death. In the same way, if McCain's death would be mourned in the same way as every other heroic POW, it would have nothing to do with politics.

note that I'm not discussing write or wrong here, just pointing out that your logic does not follow.

My logic is he is great because of his religious faith/teachings over x amount of years. I will be more than happy to point out where his views/teachings are wrong.

Not DA but yes, it's one of the rules.

How ironic now you want to go to a different thread.  ::)
Oh, didn't realize you were just trolling. :P

I just want to know who made up this DA rule. It is not like they had a mic when scriptures were written. So someone made it up.

That's why I directed you to that thread.
The basic answer is that any electricity is not permitted. If you want to know why electricity is not permitted, I'll leave it for someone else (@aygart?) to give a lecture on that.

So electricity is not permitted, that's a new one? I guess the Shabbat lamp doesn't use electricity.  ::)
Seems your knowledge of the rules is about the same as your knowledge of a great American HERO!

when you talk into a mike you are firing electrical circuits, as opposed to a shabbos lamp being turned on advance.
