The GRA did not wear Rabbeinu Tam tefillin. Someone sent me the
following "BTW, the Gra said that if one wanted to be yotze
according to all the shitos, he would have to put on 64 pairs of
tefilin."<br><br>
My friend Reb Motel Twerski, A"H, who was a son of the Milwaukee
rebbe, once said to me, "Do you know how the Chassidim got back at
the GRA? He is called Reb Eliyahu Ha Chosid everywhere!"
