[HANASHIR:3892] Re: High Holy Day Music - Children

[Ketzev2 <Ketzev2...>]

Friends--

I'm a little concerned that our sense of "helping" community is being 
underminded by reality. Stay with me a moment on this one and I'll make my 
point.

I read and get many requests on this list for music and resources. Often the 
music I receive has errors in it, sometimes multiple mistakes. This doesn't 
mean I'm not grateful to the person who sent it to me. We live in an 
imperfect world afterall.

I believe that we should ALL check the text and the words we receive and send 
before we distribute and/or type something out. Often I see "typos" in our 
mutual email on this list. While I agree that we need to be as correct as 
humanly possible, I don't think anyone is going out of their way to post 
mistakes or incorrect information here at all!

I hope that we can keep the spirit of sharing alive, but not at the expense 
of making anyone afraid or embarassed that they might havepassed on "bad 
hebrew", or just made a simple "typo". I'm sure who ever makes those mistakes 
feels badly enough that it happened at all.

Hoping we're never too critical of each other......
