    Written by Rabbi Chaim Fogelman

    My Blackberry is vibrating. I get out of bed to see what it is. It’s an e-mail from Rabbi Levy arriving in my inbox. No, it’s not a major kashrus emergency; it is a typical morning for Rabbi Levy – just checking his e-mail and forwarding relevant e-mails to me.
