Re my question on version of barukh she'amar on the pitka, 
RMB wrote <<The Rambam is a daas yachid in believing that 
there are no machloqesin
in halakhos leMoshe miSinai. (And the Rambam requires dochaq 
teirutzim to
fit the data.) If machloqesin could emerge in HlMmS, why not 
divergent
drift in traditions about the original content of the 
peteq>>

While I agree that changes in nusach can occur, methinks 
that RMB is playing the role of the tam.  He knows me and my 
style and cannot think I was being serious or that I believe 
in the pitka story.  I'm happy that my e-mail rated a 
comment but would have been happier if the reply was that 
there were  a multitude of pikaot and nuschaot and each one 
fell in the place where it was decided above that it was the 
appropriate place for that nusach.
