Joe, I finally got to see Uncle Eli's Passover Haggadah. What a wonderful site -- thanks so much for finding it! I read in one of the news clips that the online version has been pared down substantially, so as to encourage sales of the book version that's just been published, but the full website will be reinstated after the holiday. I'm definitely going to look for the book. I hope that next year I'll be able to be with my daughter for the Seder; at six, Uncle Eli's book will be just right for her.

Little Neo, when were you in Pahoa? No, there's no synagogue there, (nor anywhere on the Big Island, though there is one enjoyable congregation that unfortunately is a two- hour drive from me), but you'll still find people who would consider hemp derivatives to be kosher. My mom did well dealing with the geckoes that have the run of my house, and it really was good having her there, after years of strained relations engendered by my soon-to-be-ex. Thanks for your good wishes.

And a happy Pesach to everyone who wants it, ditto for happy Easter, and happy spring to all. (Oh, that's right, happy autumn to you folks way down South.)

Aloha,
Mark
