[HANASHIR:8372] Re: Dr. Seuss

[QuelliPG <QuelliPG...>]

seems to me this whole discussion could have been avoided by referring to the 
piece as "the Dr. Suess shabbat poem or piece, or the shabbat takeoff on the 
grinch story...  Asking about "Dr. Suess Shabbat" rather sounded like it was 
a special shabbat dedicated to Dr. suess or with a Dr. Suess theme, like 
"shabbat shira", Shabbat shekalim", etc.  at least that's my guess - if that 
were the case, my reaction would have been the same as Shirona's...  but I 
imagine she'd agree that using that poem to teach a lesson about shabbat is 
not the least bit problematic.  am I right?  please let's not jump down each 
other's throats over misunderstandings!
