[HANASHIR:6295] RE: Counting the weeks [an experiment]

[Roslyn Schwartz <rs4...>]

Thanks Adrian. 

I certainly won't go ahead with this, since you feel so strongly (and
that would apply even if you weren't list-owner).

Clearly if your reaction was so strong, my intention would not be
communicated effectively by my proposed action.

But where I am coming from is far from disrespect and Madison Avenue
hype.  In the past I have sometimes counted the days until something
unpleasant was over.  This is the first time that I can recall finding
myself counting down towards something I am _really looking forward
to_.  To me it was an echo of the waiting-for-Sinai experience, that I
could translate into my own life.  And isn't that what we are supposed
to do with Torah?
