And this is precisely what Rav Aaron Kahn, who has a shul in
Flatbush and is associated the RIETS, did in his shul. I
distinctly recall him explaining one Friday night how one should not say
Hamakom, because it was Shabbos already. Indeed, he spoke
long enough about this so that no one said it when the aveilim
entered!<br><br>
BTW, to the best of my knowledge HaMakom in not said in Chassidishe
places which often daven Mincha after Shkia. YL</font></body>
