[edit] Rav Millers view on food

can somebody please work on this paragraph and place it in the article?

Rabbi Miller's view on food was different from that of other Rabbis. While other rabbis, using the Mussar approach, would consider the eating of foods such as pizza as a pleasureable activity which should be minimized, Rabbi Millers view was that such foods, having been created by god, should be eaten and enjoyed to the fullest, so that one should be able to give thanks to god for the delicious delacacies that he created. 14:46, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Anemic!

This is the most anemic collaboration! People - spew some text so I can copyedit it... I suck at actually writing articles, it appears... - CrazyRussian talk/email 14:58, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Find any odd obituary and work it into the article. JFW | T@lk 17:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] global warming quote

Um, Nesh, are there any other quotes we could put in instead of wht you have there, something that is not so... gratuitously inflammatory, and perhaps more related to the subject at hand. Something Torah'dik, not political like that? - CrazyRussian talk/email 14:50, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Hmmmmm... I see the problem. However, I didn't add the quotes, so I reckon they should be left for the moment until we find their source. Many thanks, Nesher 15:10, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
It's from Rav Avigdor Miller Speaks published by Artscroll. --רח"ק | Talk | Contribs 21:12, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
I'm sure it's real - but it's still inappropriate. - CrazyRussian talk/email 23:28, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
