[Avodah] Aveinu Malkenu at Mincha on Taanis Esther

[Ben Waxman]

I find two problems/questions about your story:

1) You changed your minhag based on an email discussion? Did you consult 
with your rav before changing?
1) You choose to ignore minhag hamakom based on a conversation that you had 
with RS years ago? Maybe what he meant was only relevant to tachnun?
