   - There is no foolproof system
   - The cheshash is 1% of the concern for dishonest witnesses etc. as
   documented in the Talmud itself.
   - It could be broadcast on satelite TV etc.
   - Phone sqauds could be set up
   - Passsword protected websites

I'm not against YT Sheini. The idea that we have always done it that way
doesn't cut it when the circumstances have radically changed

The SA said without orchim in shuls, better NOT TO say Qiddush even though
Ran says to say it even w/o orchim. Most shtiebels follow this change!

This is not about Reform, this about investigation and svara.
If you want to say let's KEEP YT Sheini - Davka  lehotzi mileiv hareformers
Fine! so it is now a taqqama to discredit Reform.  That has some logic to
it.
