[Avodah] Printing email to read on Shabbos

[T613K at aol.com]

From: R' Micha Berger


>>Is one permitted to read  discussion group email on Shabbos? Or, is it a
problem of hakhanah, since one  will plan replies to be typed after
Shabbos?

And would it make a  difference if the group is Avodah or Areivim?<<


>>>>>
Why ask about reading the print-out on Shabbos?  What about  reading 
something online before Shabbos and then discussing it at the  Shabbos table and 
asking people what they think about the issues -- with the  intention of posting to 
the group after Shabbos?
 
And why only email groups?  What about discussing at the Shabbos table  
something that came up in a conversation with another friend, with the  intention 
of getting back to that friend with an answer?  Intuitively I  doubt there is 
any problem with any of these scenarios, actually.
