Someone told me that he heard a "svara shiyur" in which the rav said that it
could be that if a sukka is not suitable for sleeping in, then it isn't kosher
for eating in. For example, if a sukka is mosquito infected and you can't sleep
in it, then you shouldn't eat in it.<BR><BR>Anyone hear anything like this

<DIV>If you can physically fit into a small sukah and there is
just enough room for one person to sit, is it still a kosher sukah --
even though there is not enough room to lie down in it? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Would sleeping with your head in the sukah and your feet outside count as
"sleeping in the sukah"? Somehow, I don't think so.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Maybe relevant, maybe not: I notice that my Lub neighbors will eat in
the sukah even when it's pouring rain -- when to me it seems a shailah if you
would be allowed to make a bracha "leshev basukah" and there's no mitzva at all
-- yet they will not sleep in the sukah. They seem to be following a
different custom or different rules than everyone else, but based on what?</DIV>
