david1999 you have never answered tumill’s point. instead of instinctively attacking try and think for a second before responding. i don’t believe he is attacking your holding of the eruv it seems to me tumill’s question is on those people who live outside the eruv and bring food into the eruv for public consumption (relying on the back up eruv, of which no one knows if it really exists let alone its boundaries) which cannot be eaten , what can be done to make people aware of this issue. if an eruv covers one half of a street but not the other half, it dosent seem possible that mistakes would not happen
