    By stating you’re not the OP. And that we should believe you.

    Because as a mandated reporter, under oath, I have to report all who chance by here, to the Department of Hygiene of the Mental division.

    in reply to: Is a Brisker Esrog Kosher #1004201

    So for those who don’t know what I’m talking about, my question is whether it’s considered an “identifying” (nick) name, ?? ????.

    in reply to: Burn advice from Yated Readers write #1005560

    Wow! Golfer, I’m sure that was in jest. Put egg whites on the burn?? – To watch it fry?!?

    in reply to: Rocky Zweig is too funny! #1026064

    The book I just put out is a best-seller. (oops, I forgot the name)

    Don’t mob the stores. There’s enough for everyone.

    Maybe I’m the author. Let me check.

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004458

    Yeah, I became doubly crowned while sitting (tied) on the dentist’s throne.

    in reply to: Whatever happened to Yigal Calek??? #1004279

    “Sali” is from Shmuel bais, 22. The one in Tehillim is quite similar but different.

    in reply to: Emunas Yisroel #1144782

    I also know how to daven properly. I just don’t seem…

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002892

    ROB:

    Last try. OK? I spoke to an engineer (myself). OK? Please. Unless you don’t believe in science (another thread). Kindly. Tune in to this earthly world.

    If you shut off the intake (cold water) NOTHING WILL EXIT – that is your “source of water from far away”. Unless you have air pressure, or hot line pump. Nothing. Again as I wrote earlier, not even wishful thinking will do it. (Maybe with a Shem – if you’re into those things)

    Unless you are talking about a boiler on the same level or higher than the faucet – then of course one will have water equivalent to the level of the faucet.

    Sometimes one may find some hot water still exists, thats a run from higher elevated lines, which will very soon cease. Or if you have a cross linked faucet, and open both, that’s cold water.

    ‘Know what? Why don’t you try it. Shut off (completely, no cheating) your cold intake. Open kitchen faucet (hot). See how long it takes to empty existing hot water from higher elevated lines. Then stand and wish for hot water to come. Wish harder, five minutes. Post results. (turn back on cold water, it could burn or bust if you don’t have proper preventive mechanisms)

    in reply to: Purim Kattan is greater then Purim #1138294

    SiDi: Very, very nice. I really appreciated that!

    (I could sleep for you, SiDi ben/bas ????)

    in reply to: [Do Not Bump] This Thread #1120807

    Maybe, maybe not. But if this never goes away, then it’s definitely not bumping. That will be Human Nature Experiment #10004 – if it keeps getting responses.

    (I’m allowed to bump – I’m only doing it for technical modifications / alternations)

    in reply to: How Often Are You Censored? #1002823

    Purposefully avoiding this thread…

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002889

    ROB: But I am. And I understand how water moves. And I understand that as long as there is nothing to push out the water (maybe steam buildup pressure, from the trapped hot water), nothing, not even wishful thinking, will get the water out. And certainly not to drive it one floor high. I engineered (ran engines) long before Google came into existence.

    in reply to: Keeping on my Trousers #1051144

    His suspenders will be alternating sides.

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002883

    Nisht, HaLeiVi: That’s exactly what I was getting at. Which was why I wanted my friend from Long Island to ascertain he has a system which is permitted.

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002876

    ROB:

    Okay, I admit, I never went through high school (gasp), I even started late (double gasp), was home schooled for first grade (wrote about that somewhere else – for those stalking me out here). So I never learned physics, advanced reading, writing, computer skills etc. Some things however I picked up myself, hands-on. (I am writing – and it’s on a computer.)

    Now, kindly explain to me and our audience how water in a tank in the basement is “automatically” going to travel upwards to the sinks, without any pressure. (I may be extremely unlearned, ignorant in areas of Torah, Talmud, Halachah and Hashkafah, in regard to earthly matters I pretty much have a hang of matters)

    in reply to: Seminary replys #1004387

    (Do they ask how to spell ‘replies’ in the entrance exam?)

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002874

    to my friend from Long Island:

    I think you should find out how exactly you’re getting hot water out of the tank, if it’s not being forced out by any water entering. Of course it works with pressure. Everything works with pressure (I wouldn’t get up in the morning without pressure. I’d be forever hocking away here if not for pressure) There is no “pressure from the sinks” pulling out hot water. Something is pushing it out of the boiler in the basement, all the way up to your sink.

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004448

    Thanks.

    It’s not so bad (he’s still on vacation, teeth are still hanging in)

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002869

    How do you get the hot water out? Are you absolutely certain cold water isn’t entering, forcing out the hot? It doesn’t make sense to me, unless the heater is above your apartment – and you allow air in somehow. You should really check it out.

    in reply to: Time Flies Faster?! #1018735

    Yeah, I used to pilot the “time”. At first it was slow. It took roughly about a year to fly a year. Now they upgraded, so the time flies faster. Many more controls, devices, apparatuses, technologies allow to fly faster, faster than the speed of time.

    in reply to: Cleaning For Pesach #1002694

    I’m already doing for next year.

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002853

    ROB, I spoke to a competent Halachahist (Rabbi), he told me you’re absolutely correct. While that’s not the general p’sak, he understood and took into account its design and mechanism, how it works, and deemed it to be a geramah.

    (I knew I shouldn’t hop in where I don’t belong)

    in reply to: Translation of Yiddish meat names #1003076

    (something one sells for fruit)

    in reply to: using hot water from tank on shabbos #1002845

    ROB: One has to ascertain that the Rov issuing the Psak to be lenient was/is FULLY knowledgeable with the ENTIRE mechanism of the device / apparatus / appliance. I don’t C”V want to belittle any Rov’s kavod, but it was known to occur in the past. Unknowledgeable technicians “experts” presented and explained different machines to Rabbonim, Gedolim in the wrong way. Totally. (I used to be very scientifically inclined, when I read certain seforim “A certain expert explained it to me…”, I had a hearty laugh)

    There is a world of a difference between a frig, air conditioner and the likes where one may be gorem an earlier on or off (according to most / some). Even the water system pumps that will definitely be working due to one’s use, is also permitted. Too much lumdus – not for me.

    But saying a hot water heater is a gorem is pulling it a bit too far. – The only way hot water is shooting out at the faucet, is because cold water is entering and pushing it out. Not a gorem at all (issur occurs at and by the motion of the faucet). Not even a she’aino miskaven – you do want it! If you turn off the cold water, your not going to get anything.

    The only mechanism that should exist today, should be an air-pressured force going into the cold line feed, with the cold turned completely off before Shabbos.

    I don’t know why nobody thought of it. (if people come out with such a device, KNOW – they got it from Little Froggie, on the Yeshiva World!!)

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004442

    WIY, so is eating candy good for the dentists.

    and Oomis – you’re not the only one with tooth renovation projects.

    in reply to: ..Don't Look Here.. #1004089

    It’s OK.

    This two year Human Nature Experiment Project is about to come to a close. (Received our federal grant for it already)

    Pound away here

    Bump old threads

    Get into a squabble with others here…

    Start up with Mods, administration

    Create silly threads (why would anyone do that?)

    Offer your valuable input on the most important issues of the day

    MDG – I love that line. Bored? Get married and have kids!! (was I..)

    in reply to: Daf Yomi/Gemara and Technology #1002733

    DY: Yeah, that’s what I meant to write. Sometimes I’m too lazy to reread my posts, or I’m in a hurry, so I rely on my artificial spelling checker, and it leaves me with such silly mistakes.

    I just wanted to add, that ever since I got my technological gadgets to learn for me, I need the “How to fight boredom” thread!

    in reply to: Daf Yomi/Gemara and Technology #1002731

    I have my Ipod leaving together with my Iphone. This has impacted me greatly. (it leaves me free to roam the streets).

    Every once in a while they get into a disagreement. How they fight it out!!

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004437

    The instruments?

    in reply to: Time to Get a (Little) Serious #1002716

    Right! How none of the above.

    in reply to: In Witch He Snorted #1115598

    ‘scuse me. They throw in a WHAT?!?!

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004435

    WIY, I wasn’t referring to the sounds on their central music system. I was referring to the sounds those instruments of torture emit. Added for extra effect!

    Oomis: I’m sorry you’re going through anything “uncomfortable”. What’s not safe about having a thread about it. (you’re lucky you’re going through the work. Mine started a major renovation project and abruptly took a break to Vacation Land, U.S.A. – “any emergency, follow me”)

    in reply to: Dentist Chair.. #1004430

    Oh. One more thing.

    Why do those instruments of torture make such frightening “dentist office” sounds. (could at least have them emit soft soothing classical music..)

    in reply to: I did it #1002479

    But anyways HaShem created THIS WORLD too, for his creatures to enjoy. ??? ???? ?????. No, no one DESERVES it, it’s just the way HaShem wanted things to be.

    Funny you ask this question following parshas Trumah, with the famous Rashi on 25:22, ??? ?? ??? ????. Or maybe you had that in mind.

    in reply to: Little Froggie #1001708

    You’re being MUCH TOO nice, full of compliments. No, I’m not at all creative, nor a genius. Ask anyone who knows me (plenty around over here, to my dismay).

    But you’re right – I should work. In any field. (does anyone need their floors mopped?)

    in reply to: After Kosher Gym #1002086

    Get the same workout by walking to that place. And back.

    rebyidd23:

    Problem is I have to face that face every time I come in close proximity with a mirror. UCH!!

    in reply to: Little Froggie #1001706

    You’re remembering a bit too much. I (as Little Froggie) never did mention such a place. (is someone is stalking me?!?)

    If I recall correctly, Holonunu (pronounced Hallel-nunu) is very close to that area.
