Reply To: New Brooklyn Eruv: Time to Accept?

n0mesorah,
“Rav Moshe gets 350K by dividing a million into thirds. The math is off by almost seventeen thousand. Do the mattirim deduce that Rav Moshe didn’t know arithmetic, or do they claim he was misled?”
Please read the teshuvah carefully. You see I am more careful with Rav Moshe’s words than you are. Rav Moshe says ‘approximately’ 350,000 people, not that it is exactly a third.
